My cruiser on my t-maxx and the classic digger body on the x and my sons mini -t with a little digger body. Some needs to come up with a 72 chevy blazer boy so I can paint it to match my 1:1 truck.

Beautiful looking bodies!! I love them both! Nice job! What colors did you use for both bodies, if you don't mind me asking.

My latest creation. Shell was sanded with 400 grit wet paper for the dull finish. Should have used 1800 or 2000 grit to prevent the scratches. I was going for a matte black, but ended up with faded worn out black. I still think it came out pretty sweet.

Nice idea! Looks great!! It would look better w/out the wing though IMO.

Yes the wing does look out of place, but it is the best wheelie bar I have found
