Not yet. Once I get some of the electronics that I have purchased this week and I have something setup in the truck I will get some photos posted up. Up to now I have kept a low profile with photos, because I knew it would take me a long time to get something really nice completed. I have been working on 4 trucks at one time over the last two to three years. I have been in no real rush to get them finished. Maybe it will soon be time to show them off. I don't have a few thousand dollars laying around to drop on my toys, so it is a month to month project for me. Thanks for asking though.

WOW!! that looks great, I hate to ask but how much $ have you spent?

[TDC57]

Thanks for the kind words..
To-date I've got $3,135.85 if my records are correct.. Minus tax and shipping (those don’t count towards the value)

Have a great one and thanks for looking..

P.S.
Yes I know I've spent way to much money on it!

[TDC57]

Thanks BG!.. I was doing that everytime I had the oppertunity to work on her too. Loads of fun to build and I cant wait to drive her. I'm hoping to have her running soon. I did speak with with Ben @ sicklizds today and here are some pre-painting shoots he forward to me.. I should have the body by Friday (then it will be looking totaly SWEET)





I hope you like it!..

Have a great one.

Shaun.

[TDC57]

All right gentlemen,
I think the custom mods are just about complete?! (Yes!!)
Here I'm showing the rear sway bar links, before and after.
The before shoots represent a pair of stock 3905 E-Maxx steering drag links and the after represent the red anodized striped and polished

Again thank you for your time in reviewing this thread and have a great day!

Shaun.

Before:




After:




(FYI)
If you plan on doing this mod to your beast? The center support is a P3 rocker, Traxxas # 5329X the rear sway bar links are steering drag links off of a 3905 E-Maxx, Traxxas # 3914R and the front steering sway bar links are off a Rustler toe links, Traxxas # 3239X. All of these parts started out as Red anodized and I simply stripped them with Easy off oven cleaner and polished them using 0003 steel wool and Mothers Billet metal polish..

I was just looking at your project and I am wandering about your ESC monting. With the ESC mounted directly under the motor isn't that going to creat problems both with heat and with hi frequency interference? Just a thought...

Hay Jerry2kone!,
Not that I'm aware of?? I've got several people who know there *$^#& and I've been told / infomed that I've picked a great place for it? (who knows)??

I'll let you / the team know if and when I get it running if I have any problems with it..

That's a great comment!.. Thank you!. I'll be sure to look out for any isses..

Have a great one!..

[lutach]

WOW. This hobby never gets old for me. Every time I see some nice conversion, it's just WOW. This forum has by far the most beautiful conversions and experienced guys ever. Every day I learn something new and when I get a chance to do a Revo conversion, I'll be looking at some of the conversions here. Every conversion in this forum rocks.

[TDC57]

My body is complete!.. Yaaaa

Now I just need to receive it and install it.. Cant wait..











Have a great one.

[xcntrk]

Wow that body is hot!

Gonna look even better all scuffed up from doing standing backflips with that torquey motor
