this is the last offroad RC i had (well, i still have it, and it still works, it's just WAY old)

Funny, that was my first real RC as well. Thanks!

These things are really pieced together. Not available as a kit.

The body is off a cheap toy from walmart or target. I kept the body and scrapped the rest!

You could probaby get this body to fit on an E-maxx, I just don't think it would handle high speed crashes too well!

Thanks. Body is off a cheap RC from Walmart, the chassis is an axial scx10 which I lengthened the wheelbase on. I made the bumpers myself.

Smart move! In it's stock form from walmart it's a huge pile of crap. The tires are plastic and it's worthless. I got mine of sale for $20, I figured it was worth it for the body alone. The rest of it is in the landfill by now.
