well it may be a while before it is ready to go? i still need to find a top gear shaft for the pede tranny. but the lhs is supposed to be getting them in today?

also need to pick up a lathe motor. and some other small things.

i was looking at running a proline 72 Chevy truck body? but after seeing some other trucks with stadium truck bodies i kind of like that look to?

but the Chevy is still first on the list.

Just some new pics!

Got the pede tranny completed and everything mounted up!

Will be moving the electronics to the axles later on.

Still need to narrow the wheels( little gun shy after a littel x-acto mishap doing the first wheel! )
glue the tires and find a body?

Thanks Alfred!
Yah the little run I did was fun! And the chassis setup performed good to me!

Once I decide how to do the foams for the tires and glue them up I will get a little more runtime in.

I am wanting to run a Proline 72 Chevy Truck body. But also like the look of the 1/10th Stadium Truck bodies on a crawler!

It will come down to what I can find locally!hehe

Well it's been awhile since I posted in here

So let's update

I got the wheels narrowed and glued the tires up. and did a star cut on the foams.

And big mahalos to my buddy big for hooking me up with some body mounts!

I bought the Proline '72 Chevy C10!!! I really like this body!

Unfortunately the P4 chassis is designed more as a competition chassis so it sits nice and low. Which makes mounting this type of body difficult without chopping it up And I don't want to that! At least not yet!hehe

But thanks to some HPI 4" body post I got it on there! It is sitting high, but this saves me from cutting the body. I can't get full articulation but that does'nt bother me at this point!

Here's some pics

Also bought big's JR XS3 radio! So now I can get my 4ws working!!!!
