Eachine EAT01 military truck conversion to dual motor "Arctic" exploration truck

Hi,

I converted a cheap Eachine EAT01 6WD military army truck to an "Arctic exploration" Oshkosh truck with dual motors. It consisted in:
- Full paint job of truck body with weathered look (my very first!)
- 3D printed holder for dual 370 motor power. From Doug4058 available here:
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4042088...
- Full metal transmission and new suspension system
- New steering mechanism
- Magnet holders for truck body. My 3D design is available here:
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4298219...
- Spektrum receiver and RC4WD Outcry III Dual Motor Waterproof ESC
- Additional LED light and flashing light

All comments welcome!
