So when do you want me to send the $5 bucks to buy that thing? j/k
 
7T Cobalt Puller
 
Good choice. Holmes does make some good motors. You still must have one laying around because didn't they quit making them a while back?
 
Taking the one out of my old Warthog crawler since it just sits on a shelf.

Shame Holmes quit making them. They are smooth on the low end with insane wheel speed when you need it.
 
Sweet. Guess your next pic will be the final built rig in 6 months? :hehe: just kidding.
 
id vote a nice deep deep green with lotsa gloss, a maroon red, anything but the rtr silver. black also looks really good. (I'm thinking real rubicon colors I've seen)

You're giving me to much credit.

It won't be silver and it won't be glossy.
 
I'm hoping for flat black or a total trashed paint job, I hate pretty scalers if it can be helped.
