Default Where can I find a stripped chassis?



I want to build something like this:

That is clearly an airsoft tank with the turret stripped down. The servos for turret rotation and barrel lift/lowering are used to manuever the camera around. I don't want to buy a new tank just to strip it down, so I am interested in buying a refurb, return, damaged unit, etc, basically the chassis minus the plastic armor shell.

Where can I find something like this?I'd want good track suspension, proportional speed control, and definitely an airsoft gun feature so I can use that control for turning the camera/light on or off. (or a fireworks detonator) A machinegun noise feature would be good too, I could switch that over to being a push to talk remote voice commo feature.

I'll probably end up wiring it to this C6Ccontroller: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N294K7hz2KE which you guys probably know about but may find interesting.

It took me many hours of google to find this forum, I hope I find some answers here.
