I mean just imagine the possibilities, haha.20241005_040536.jpg
"Vintage" seats or the more more 'sporty' bucket seats? Disregard the missing 4th red seat as seen here:20220708_232726.jpg20241005_040638.jpg
These are just quick mock ups of parts to be possibly used, or more than likely to be used for this fun build. Follow along with my BAD20241005_040644.jpgBelow are screenshots of some ideas of what I want mine to look alike. Screenshot_20220709-105959_Chrome.jpgScreenshot_20220709-110017_Chrome.jpgSome are ancient screenshots, some are old pictures that I took a long time ago. Screenshot_20240801_220513_Chrome.jpgit will receive the suspension from the RZR rey ( that got the new baja rey 2.0 suspension upgrade) and the rear trailing arms as you see. Screenshot_20240704_135729_Chrome.jpgHowever, the front and rear will get 1/10 traxxas summit diffs installed instead of losi differentials. YA, Thats right, Big, locking, diffs, mounted via 4 Tamiya TLT axle parts.2 on top and 2 on bottom.20241002_112010.jpgmock up time to mount it to something, and then power soon thereafter 20241002_112005.jpg

I laughed a little after reading the title then looking at the first pic. Looking fwd to seeing this come together. (y)
To lol is the goal. Just wait until you see me use my BSAD 2019 skills (Bamboo Skewer Aided Design) to make the "cage"

It will be epic! written in all lower case, lol.
 
I had bough a Losi RR mixed parts lot on eBay a while back for the intended purpose of putting the Losi rear axle under a Jesse James 53 Chevy
I got to clean all the parts yesterday, and wouldn't you know it, everything is straight! Additionally, I made out like a bandit, because I paid less than what those two new in package parts cost for the whole lot and all the rear axle needed was a new diff cup and a new rear axle housing.20241005_035352.jpg

Just a thought, but if you have access to a copy machine that print's 11x17, print your design chassis drawing to scale tube lengths. 60/40 r/f weight bias so it jumps flat like a 1:1. Looking good.
