Default don't know if this qualifies as a crawler, but it's scale...

so i needed a winter project to keep me busy while i wait for the snow to melt and drive my on-road car.

i had an old electric Tamiya Hummer kit i got a few years back. so i threw the wheels on my NTC3 (onroad car) and made some custom (and removable) body mounts. i also added some dirt shields, who knows if they'll work.

it looks just like the electric kit, only now it has an exhaust pipe sticking out the side.

i still have to get some new shocks that'll be better off-road. there's a nice buggy/ST track at my LHS that i'm gonna run it on in a few days, i'll post pics and maybe even a video. until then, enjoy:

body front

body rear

chassis

front mount

rear mount

That hummer body looks very cool.

I don't know if I would make a "paper" dirt shield right in front of the pipe though. 8O

I saw a nitro car catch fire mid race it was funny as hell and the best part was that he was finish the race, on fire (like 3 laps) and ended up taking my A-main win because i couldnt stop laughing.
