    Body repair experiment.

    CAUTION!!! This turned out not to be the unbreakable body I thought it would be!!

    Body repair experiment.

    Body repair experiment.

    I was wondering if anyone had experience repairing bodies. I had about 10 decent bashing sessions on one of the cheap-o traxxas brand stock type tmaxx body. Well the thing broke into pieces behind the cab where the fuel access comes through the bed. I have zero experience repairing any body. So...
