My first RC

The Brat was the first RC I got when I was a kid. Destroyed the poor thing few weeks after assembly, poor control skills back then. Didn't have the cash to buy another body so replaced it with a frog body I got from a friend. Ever since I've wanted the actual vehicle for daily driving but haven't had much luck finding one in good shape.
Built this one from scrap parts and new parts found on E-bay. Chassis is the red one found on the Blackfoot. Reverted the Frog gearbox to the less sophisticated one without the differential -better traction since I plan on using the stock tires for the run. The lexan body by Parma is only a cheap alternative, didn't want to waste the stickers on it. Looking for the original plastic body.
