It's fun reading all the different comments. I'm glad it's inspiring interest in classic parts.

I mailed Shane some parts for Nats along with some parts for this build. After reading through my clod build "The Grunt", I decided to mail Holmes Hobbies OG Crawlmaster Outrunner motors for this build with 6 tooth pinions front and rear. Although the Ti links I sent for it aren't period correct, they will look nice compared to all thread and brake tubing. Making this rig run is a possibility, but with so many projects in the queue already, it's going to be hard to choose which ones receive what.

That looks great Shane. Thank you for building it. I'm excited to pick it up from you at Crawlapalooza. I'm thinking about adding dual mamba micro pros and a 4PK RX to get it running. I'm curious to know what it's capable of.

It takes skill to create a custom crawler from multiple vendors and parts platforms and Shane has them. I picked up the mini clod from him at Crawlapalooza only to drop it off with my scale adviser. The rig is getting a new a detailed driver. Pics to come once it returns to the CI shop.

Pics of the new driver, although I don't think he's going to stay. He's to big for the cab area. I think an HPI interior will fit so I am going to try that instead.







I ordered in two Castle Creation sidewinder micro esc's and a castle BEC for this build. Here they are programmed, assembled & ready for install:



More to come...

I have purposely not posted because I want to post it finished and running. It needs motors to run and a couple scale details finished.
