WHITE WHEELS???? N OOOOOOO!!! J/K.. Im sure it'll look sweet reguardless! I'd like to replicate the Rockstar Makita ''Baja5T'' like the one in the RC Car mag ads.. (Not much to it, but it looks cool..)

BAJA 5T (Any idea if anyone even makes wheels & tires similar to these, in 17mm-1/8 scale??)

Those are Proline wheels and tires, I had them on my 5T when I owned it. I do not know as of right now anyone that sells them like that for what we are looking for. If I come up with something I will let you know or anyone for that matter.

So you've seen it and Kurts seen it, but I've yet to even see the box!!!

At least I know what it is though.. After some in depth prodding Im fairly certain she was seriously thinking about getting me something from Radio Shack.. EEK!!! So we decided on ordering our own, but not getting to touch or see until x-mas.. When it arrived I wasnt here and she hid it away before I could even get a look..

So Im probably gonna be like a 5 year old on christmas morning.. You know, cant sleep all night and up around 5 am

hehehe..

Zielke, when we gonna see the painted truck?? Anxious to see what ya came up with!!

Actually that is the stock body, I am keeping the other shell for another project when I get the time. Glad you like the truck - thanks.

Oh that's stock? I didnt know they had the ghost flames on the fenders.. Looks cool! You must of decided to go with the white wheels too? Even with the stock body, you can tell from the pic it's no stock truck!! Redcat should take your idea and start making them with the 17mm (buggy) wheels!! Makes all the difference!! Whoever gets it is gettin a nice piece!! Plus all the stock parts as spares in case ya tear something up.. Cant beat that! Too bad ya didnt have a custome truggy for sale before the holiday!

Oh well, good luck on the sale and cant wait to see what ya come up with next!!

Thanks Mick! I did fit some truggy bodies on this one with some trugggy 17mm wheels with a backdraft rear wing. If they come out with a aluminum wing mount I would build one. The truggy wheels and body add a bit more weight. I will see next month, must pay for a home project this month. Thanks for your compliments man, I appreciate it.
