Just a thought on your motor sliding. Take a piece of scotch brite or sandpaper and scuff up the inside of the motor mount. Personally, I'd do the motor too - but I doubt you'd like the looks of it.

The back drop of Picture number 1 is beautiful, no mountains in Fl.


I retired from RC, now life is all about guns and long range shooting.

LOL I thought the same and I am from Cali! But Freeze the first shot looks Sick as well as the body.

But does that body rub the tire when turned and shocks compressed? Pic 2 looks close...

in pic 3 you can see the gorilla tape doing its job, with the downfall of balooning sidewalls (you can see the profile of the tire is actually a "U" shape) and lack of in-air control


Built Ford tough, with Chevy stuff.

Here in FL a mountain is a huge dirt pile at a construction sight, FL is flat till you get up to the state line and then we have "Hills".

Um... you realize of course that Missoula in western Montana is in the same mountain range, the ROCKIES, that cut through western/central Colorado?! That "mountain" is nothing but a shot of the foothills.
