April/May 2008 -- "Open Class" Entry Thread:

[TheB1GDude]

Well I had kinda hoped the coolcar24th wouldn't be finished in time to enter but with a $100 prize I guess I should have known better! So without any further nonsense here is my off road B1G R1G entry:








The project thread will be going up shortly but so that you know these are the modifications:

Custom Flame Paint by Bondo of SGK
Custom Grill
Custom Rear Axel with custom 4WD shaft for full time rear 4WD
SuperSlicks Monster Truck Tires and Rims
Li-Ion Powered courtesy of BLT456
Hitec HS-55 servo motor
Dual functional antennas
Numerous custom fabricated aluminum parts, e.g. motor clamp.
Servo and Board all re-wired for extra chassis length
Two XTruck rear chassis' melded together to make one rear end
Two custom CLL kits one powers all the front lights the other powers the rear spot lights.
Mock up interior.

The coolest thing is that the rear end is actually reversible so you can run either a fast motor or a crawler motor.

Oh and here is an early test run of the chassis:

As you can see it really needs metal bearings because the extended arms cause it to sag a little.....

Enjoy!

Here's my newly completed '77 Jeep CJ-7 Renegade. It's mounted on a car chassis. The chassis is pretty much stock, with bearings and a Spinbrush motor with low gearing. The body is all done by me, even my brand new idea, a Rhinoliner-type of effect. It worked pretty well and I hope other people think so as well!
