Default lowslowTJs Rat Rod CR-01

It used to look like this:


Now this:




No build just some almost finished pictures. I am waiting on some parts and then I am done! Also I incorporated an old 1/8th drill bit and a tap into the cage.

I'm sorry the first time I saw the thread the pictures of the truggy didn't load. It look awsome, how does it perform? also did you keep the original chassis? From the picures it's hard to tell.

I made the chassis, but its very similar to the stock chassis its ~3mm plate aluminum and needs some strengthening, but its light weight.
