You can turn the chassis plates into some upper link/servo mounts.

Test out some ideas that need some thin metal?

Cut the bottom off and use it as a ladder type frame?

Bend it and make it into a door stop?

Use it for coster and a converstation starter?

I could probably do this for a while so I'll stop for now.

yeah, no one wants to see 50 cents worth of aluminum go to waste. seriously, I have three of them sitting on my shelf and I don't care one bit.

work on your rig, don't worry about the stock chassis.

I thought of putting it together with the stock wheels for my son as a toy truck to just push around

but I like the idea of servo plates from the bottom portion, or hacking into a ladder type frame...
