Not really, just the standard Revo body (but is the black version). I thought it would look OK, but forgot about the engine hole! So, my Nitro Revo will inherit that body and I'll have to buy one for the electric one.

I'm pretty bummed out that I can't work on it much anymore for a couple of months for lack of funds. :( I'm sure I'll pick a few of the cheaper items, but it's at a standstill for the most part. I still have to figure out a transmission skid plate - the stock one doesn't quite fit even after modification. So I guess I'll be busy for another couple of days making that.

I originally planned to make this little by little so I would be ready for the expensive stuff at the same time as I had cash, but I guess I got a little over excited. :o I think I like building these more than driving them. :)

I know I asked this question somewhere, but can't remember where or find it:
Dafni, where did you get your center drive shafts? I noticed the stock ones aren't long enough and the tranny sits slightly to the left of the chassis centerline, which reduces the thickness of the shaft I can use for the rear (the bulkhead ends get in the way). Do the shafts telescope to be able to insert them where they need to go and then expand to lengthen over the output shafts - or does the tranny need to be "finagled" in while installing the drive shafts?
