Here's a little something I'm trying while waiting "patiently" for spring.







Trying to make a pick-up out of it.














Had to narrow the back part to get it to line up.

.

The Dingo got a good makeover, and close to being done. New body and paint, lightbar, upgraded trans, UD/OD gears, and a few other things. I plan on adding the Reign RC grill and headlight kit.

The 57 is waiting for a patient day, outside needs paint so lots of careful masking so I don't *F* it up.

I stripped the Trailfinder for fresh paint using nitro fuel (tip from posters on the forum here). It worked good but then softened and warped the body . A new body runs about $109!

Some progress anyway!

I did a new Dingo body in black, new RC4WD front bumper, body mounted brake and running lights and removed the spare and tire carrier. It looks alot more agressive now, pretty happy so far.
