i built this truck a few years ago to bush crash without holding back, front exo, rear radiator and 3s on gas, its been a solid performer with amazing reliability but latley its been looking more than a little second hand.

it looks a lot cleaner and straighter with no cage.
i have a clean ifs front that's stripped right out that i was thinking body swap but now im thinking of either swapping in the 3s and keeping the ifs as an off-road racer of keeping the live axle and ditching the chassis all together and go super light weight... decisions , decisions
