Here's a LINK to my build photos.
I didn't want to start with RTR so I bought most of my parts from the eBay "chop shops."
I'm having a blast!
:yes:

I'm hoping to snag a set of PL Commandos cheap. I want to strip the chrome off and dye them blue.

Just thought I'd share what I'd done.

I added a picture of the painted pipe and header on the engine. More parts coming tomorrow.
Check out the page if you get a chance.

It's A-L-I-V-E!!!

Take a look at my finished MGT (yeah right, finished) but minus body.
Also a short video of it running across the front yard.

Did you break in that motor, or even tune it. Sounds really really rich! I know that motor has way more then that lol. Tune it up and make a new vid of you popin a wheelie across the yard. Nice truck though!

I was working on breaking it in.
Did seem to be using a LOT of fuel - LOL!!
I'm working on it. But so far so good. I can't believe how easy it starts and how well it idles. Nothing like my last nitro vehicle (which admittedly has been a while ago).
I will take a video of it pulling wheelies!!
