Looks awesome!

I like that you went away from the "clean" look, and went with the beater look.

Decided on a red grille. Got the bull bar painted up, and took a black Sharpee to the stupid white servo horn. Why are they always white?

And check out this servo! It will be even faster and stronger on the Furitek esc.

Using some scrap lexan for all the windows. Got the windshield done. The enemy was a fairly good aim, and missed the body completely. Also got the tail lights and rear windows in.

I see plenty of holes to peer through!
When I spray the final coat of clear on everything, it should be a bit clearer. I have 3 coats of matte clear on it right now. One more will go on as soon as the rest of the windows are done.
 
Got the body all done. Breydon will probably want to throw some bumper stickers on it, but the paint and windows are complete.

This turned out spectacular!! 🤩
Thanks. It will hopefully not take too much road rash when we get to putting it through some terrain. But I expect it will, even with 4 coats of clear.
 
Just adds more character.
I tried dying the plastic black, but it wouldn't take dye at all. Maybe I needed Rit Dye More, but all I had was regular, so I said screw it.
 
Unbelievable bro, she looks incredible.
You will absolutely love the Stinger and I highly recommend it to everybody else.
Thank you. Funds are going to be tight next month, so going to try to squeeze the Furitek order in, but not hopeful. And I need to wait til I get that to go further on this build. So next up is the C10. Will be starting a build thread on it this weekend, so I may just grab a few parts for it before I get the Stinger combo ordered, and save the rest of this build for June's big order.
 
I started back in with the Baja. I've already received the wheels and the tires will be here on Monday.
The engine is next and again it will be a 45cc engine. I have to wait 3 weeks before I order that.
 
This is the best looking 24scale i ever seen.

I love the red grille also. Alot better than stock to this body.
You really nailed this body perfect to this car.
So insane cool.

It have that nice Scarry looks
I love it

Scrore will be 10+ of 10

Thanks bro. I have seen better, but for the sake of keeping the top spot in your eyes, I will not share those here 😜
