Default stretched mini t yota

Here are some pics of my nearly finished mini t based yota! Custom made one piece alum. chassis with a Delrin pan to accomidate the elecs. Powered by a cobalt brushless motor from the blade (5400 or 5800 kv I think) and 12 1500 mah 2/3A cells and a mamba 25. Body work was done untill the first run..LOL Plan on selling this project once I am done. The body is from an old nikko truck.

ok... once I can post pics I'll get them on here

I can't get pics loaded so here's a link!

Very cool! It looks great! You did a quality job on the chassis and body mounting.

I used to sell them for the standard wheel base mini t but they never took off. Just used 1/8" alum. flatstock from the home improvement store. Front bulkhead area is the only tricky part.
