Vanspeed 205 Posted August 2, 2020 This truck was a labor of love. I hand built the entire body and put it on a shortened Clod. By far this is the most realistic body I have ever done. As soon as I finished it I got a crazy offer for it so it no resides in a glass case. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a company near me that can vacuum chrome plastics such as styrene. It cost around $120.00 usd to do the bumpers and roll bar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

isomer1 175 Posted August 4, 2020 @Vanspeed how did you go about shortening the clod chassis? I've only ever seen the racers extend them (often somewhat comically). Your's looks great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've only ever seen the racers extend them (often somewhat comically). Your's looks great. I shorten the trailing arms, in a spot where I then fill them back up with styrene blanks I CNC’d then solvent weld them in. I have some spares I will post a pic. By shortening them you can run a Blackfoot body like I did on Jeff Dane’s awesome Kong. The orange one in this pic. It stands up too. I bash the crap out of it. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
