a big MIDNIGHT PUMPKIN would be totaly baddass. Make a back hatch cover that would screw on, and you could then also have a GRAVEDIGGER, or make a GD body and a flat bed part that could be screwed on if you trim the shell and make it a pumpkin.

EDIT: But that would still be a FORD

Dodge Ram or Durango would be cool

the car is pretty much designed from the ground up, not sure how much to say about it, but those shocks are far from baja shocks!the whole car is very special.

The elcon buggy shocks will fit on the hpi baja, they will probably be available after they put the buggy into production. The prototype is already placing in the top three in a lot of the races on the other side of the pond.

The buggy is pricy, but it is a racing buggy, all alloy and carbon and ready to hit the track.

It is not pretty much designed from the ground up. Change that for completely.
The only thing it uses the same as other cars is the Zen or CY engine and the rims are the same diameter so different makes of tyres can be used.
Even the grommets I saw are their own make.

No these are elcon shocks, look on their pages, soon to come out.
They are also much bigger in diameter than the baja ones, fits the Baja also.
High volume, more travel and not leaking.
I saw the cars go and it is like they stick to the track with these shocks. The cars seem not be moving at all due to bumps, very smooth and fast.
