I haven't been able to find the "want to" too finish another scrathbuilt body I started on a year ago (67-72 bodystyle), so I have been redoing my other RC Chevy trucks.

I'm mostly building new chassis and adding more realistic axles to the trucks, and this will be the last, I think..

I stole the axles from this truck..so, it needs axles.

I bought these from my favorite online store

And this is where it starts

I picked up the u-bolts from ebay, they are for another type of truck, but they work. The other stuff is all made by hand.

This will be the new chassis after some work. I will have some left over for another truck I am going to rebuild..(Ford

)

Sometimes a little more weight in the tires help it do its "thing"

I just evenly space them around the inner ring..and no worries on being unbalanced, it just doesn't go fast enough..
