Ever since getting into the scale crawling scene I've always dreamed of owning a Mattzilla Chassis with a Tamiya Hard Body. A couple months ago I was able to finally afford one!!! They ain't cheap, but man!!!! The craftsmanship is second to none on this bad boy!!!
I'm finally ready to retire my TCS X-Trail Bronco Truggy and will use most of the goodies from under that rig. That rig was pretty bad ass itself even when it had TLT's underneath. The issue is that the X-trail chassis is just a tiny bit too wide for running the SCX10 axles the way I like to. It's PERFECT for the TLT's BTW.
I know I'll be sacrificing some weight on this build with the solid rod cage and steel chassis, but I'll still try and keep her under 8Lbs. The ole' truck weighed 6.4 Lbs with ALL running gear and 2700Mah 3s battery.
OK, enough jibba jabba!!!
And that's what she looks like at the moment. I'm still debating on the color. I'm thinking either a nice red or a champagne gold or something
