Bought a truck from a kid I call “Mr. Slinky” at SlinkyRc, I am making this for his builds he sends me. I bought the wpl-c from him.
I made the names up. Lol.

An update, lowered body, paint job, just little mods, also found a chassis for it but going to wait on that, spendings are going elsewhere at the moment, but this will grow as I get moola or tinker. The wheels unsure of yet, but have the adapters on now, and ready to run, now has 1080 esc, and looking for a motor. But still ready to run.

I have been searching for stuff with this truck and the parts are out there just have to do a little research and these things would do pretty good I think. But I am in no hurry with this one, probably as I break, I will fix, with better parts. These trucks need major help with crawling on the rocks. Hopefully I can get more than one line out next time with the mods I have done. Going to be a struggle with this one.
