ok so i decided what im going to do with the f150 trekker i got from ebay..
im going to take it apart.. but not yet..

there were so many other bodies that came with it and so many extra parts like a complete set of axles!!!!!! so im going to build 2 instead of making a 4ws rig!!!!!


so I need to know what this is so i can google it and get some ideas on how to lay it out....

Awesome in person!!!!!

I have that last chassis, (theblack one) PM me if you want it, I'd send it for the cost of shipping:)

thanks for the offer... i just said in that part that im building that one right now.. "thumbsup"

i have the blue one too... just dont know what make it is...
 
I don't think I've seen the blue one before but it looks like such a cool idea!

I looks to me like it uses all the stock Micro crawler geometry. If you need any of the stock arms for a micro let me know. I have TONS!

I searched a bit the other day didnt find anything. Could it be homemade? I'm interested to know
 
I looks to me to be a vaccu-formed body/ chassis. The way the windows are cut out. I know a thing or two about vac-forming. Totally custom or hand made...
 
hmmm well i thought it was hand made.. ill try and get some more pics of it up...
i say hand made because the hood is just a square glued between the 2 sides...
i know that because trying to put the ballies in i broke the glue free on one side..
 
I would guess it's hand made. As soon as you posted this thread I thought about one I made a while back. It looks like it's made around the stock link geometry, just like I did mine. That material is cooler than what I used, and the design is a bit more refined than mine was. I did this as a proof of concept. Maybe a couple of my pics will give you an idea of the possibilities with yours. Here is one, so you can judge similarity. IF you'd like more, I can drop a few more on ya ;)
