I got this huge New Bright beetle body as a gift. I just happened to be looking for a new body for my Kraton. The wheelbase is a little short but I can make it work. It came with a blown V8 motor that was originally mounted in the rear. I'll cut out the body to mount the motor in the front.

Congrats. Thats the size of the raptor crawler I'm working on. I had the f150 with the atv in the bed, 1/6 scale, both rc. I threw it away 15 years ago and still regret it. They sure dont make them like they used to.
 
I think it's"finished".

I'm running it on 4s today. I'll hold off on the 8s action for a few days so the body will survive long enough to get more pics lol.
