Me like!! Do you have a long glow stick?? Is the 2.0 bigger and just as thick as the original Crowd Pleazer? (I have one ordered)

Awesome paint job and nice body!!
Couple questions if you don't mind...
Did it fit over the new era bar with the stock posts?
Does it lean against the exhaust pipe?
Can you use the roto start with the body on?

Yes, I had to buy a 3.5 inch long glow ignitor (twist style) and cut a small hole in the top of the cab. I don't know how thich the originals are, but this one is pretty darn thick. Probably twice as thick as the stock body. It's the same thickness as the Proline F-150 body, which is .060 I believe.

Thanks for the kind words.
I doesn't fit over the bar with the stock posts. I had to take some rear Tmaxx posts and cut out the cross bar, then I had to trim the retaining ring a bit in order to get it to fit inside the hood scoop, and I put those on the front of the LST. The stock rear ones are fine.
It does slightly rub on the pipe. I put a piece of duct tape on the inside of the body where it rubs the pipe and gear cover to keep the paint from rubbing off the body. I also reinforced the body post holes with some body retaining rings from the inside to keep them from cracking in the future.
Yes you can still use the roto start with the body on. You just have to cut a small hole in the side so that you can slide the shaft in.
