Built this chassis from scratch using a oxy/acetylene torch, 3/8 stainless tube (the coated stuff will produce poison gas), and a lot of time..

It is built on a rc10 platform. Has almost all alloy parts. RDent Aluminum Arms, GPM steering/hub parts, Litesink motorplate, Losi Hydradrive to help in the sand, Losi Steering, T&A Precision Rims, HG Knockoffs, Inetrc Front Shock Tower, Stealth Tranny (alloy top hydra shaft, Robinson center gear, and HG Diff with HG Diff Nut, HG Rear Arm Mounts, Custom Made Aluminum Front Plate and Wing (by me), Custom Alloy Rear Bulkhead, HG Alloy Tranny Brace, All HG Shock Parts (bushings, spring retainers, Clamps), Lunsford titanium Turnbuckles Tekin FXPro ESC, Spektrum Micro Reciever, Checkpoint 9t Motor, Orion Lipo, Airtronics Hi Torque Rock Crawler Servo, and problaby some other stuff i forgot.

I will be producing a limited run of Tube Chassis similiar to the one in my showroom (the tube build #2), which is a 'copy' of the real racing chassis, allowing anyone with a gold pan/team car RC10 to be able to bolt on parts and make it run. 80% of parts are still available at towerhobbies or from associated still. Pricing is tenative at the moment... I will be listing a few on ebay First.. so keep an eye out.

I can also make 1-off custom chassis's and wings for anyone who wants one.. There is a lot of time involved in developing a 1-off custom chassis, so contact me if you are interested... I am also selling soon aluminum wings.

This thing looks quite radical! Shiny and solid, huge paddles on the rear tires, Lovely frame... How many hours have you spent to get to such a result :O

thanks for great comments everyone.. it took me probably a total of 60+ hours, but i worked on it like a hour each nice and not every night.. Alot of it was a learning curb also for me since i wasnt a great welder. The one in my other showroom, i made in a total of 4 hours.. and it was mostly spent prototyping for a production sandrail frame i am going to be selling.

One question: how much does it weigh and are you going to run it? Ow, that's two questions...

it is totally setup for running, spektrum micro reciever, checkpoint 9t motor, tekin fxpro ESC, rock crawler servo, and a orion lipo.. honestly.. since its my first car.. if i run it, it will be very lightly lol. I am going to make some more with a brushless setup that i will haul some serious butt with lol. it weighs approx 5-6 lbs.. its amazing light with a lipo.. slightly heavier than my rc10b4 with a regular battery..

Man, those wheels are sharp. I had one and sold it to a guy named Asa Shaw on that RC10 page. He and I did some great business.
