Good clod find, looking for advice.
 
I got this truck used for about $25. I have no idea what the chassis is and the tires are scary looking with all those screws.

Here are some pics.

I want to make a nice crawler with the axles, ive never done a clod before so im looking for advice, pictures and maybe some information on this chassis.

Thats a awsome deal, expecialy with those motors, there hard to come by, people would jump to buy one for $25.

Hey there

You have clodzilla Version 3. Great play chassis. But first you will want to mount the servo(s) onto the axles.

This chassis is also a little short for crawling, but its a solid start.

I'll give you $35 for it, hell that's a $10 profit"thumbsup"

Thanks, a friend of mine traded some old snowboard gear for this truck and a nitro stadium truck. he never used them so they just sat in his basement for about a year or so. well recently ive been working on building my tlt jeep in the machine shop at school so i got ahold of him and got this one for $25.

I didnt relize it was a clodzilla. Those things use to be the s#$* back in the day. Do you think anybody would want to buy the chassis? well if so let me know and make an offer.

yeah i noticed the motors, i havnt seen any of these for awile, i was thinking about cleaning them up and running them. The esc it came with is an airtronics and looks like junk to me.

I am thinking about doing a home made stick chassis, I dont see why the stick chassis kit is so expencive.

reat score for $25, but I'd ditch the tires.
