Titan.
Mods:
Shares a chassis with the F-150, it's my spare body.. aka my shelf queen. The F-150 is for play.

One thing I discovered guys, is that Mothers Carnauba Cleaner car wax works AWESOME on our Xmods.. the Titan and F150 both received it, as well as the Camaro. Barricade is about to get it, I might do some before and after pictures of that.

What do you guys think?

I might ask my dad for some of his "Adams Collector Car Shine" to use on my XMODS. Very nice collection. I thought the NSX was done and painted black..

Well, the NSX was done with the black paint, but when I got the silver metallic base coat for the paint on the Camaro, I had to know what the NSX looked like with it, so I sprayed it that color and left the hood black, I was hooked. Here's a picture of that:

I like it alot more than just the black, most people don't though..

Thanks for the compliments!

The F-150 is a little different now..

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/IMG_0671.jpg

I still need to figure out what to do with the rear clip.. but I also think I need to lift the body even higher.. not sure. I like this look alot better.

Only problems are steering is limited now, so I am considering a relocation of the battery tray, an HS-55 servo is more than likely in it's future, although I didn't want a crawler at first, I think this made me want one..

And, I will be tearing the chassis down and painting alot of stuff black now that alot of parts are showing.

And, if anyone has a truck chassis laying around they don't need.. let me know. I think I'm going to do a street truck with the Titan..

Wow, this one could use an update.

New Xmods added since thread creation:

1967 Camaro:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/IMG_0130.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/IMG_0129.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/IMG_0128.jpg

It is sitting on the NSX's old chassis.

I finished the NSX:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/DSC01590.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/DSC01607.jpg

It is now sitting on the bare Gen 1 chassis from the first post.

The F-150 got a paint job:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/DSC01598.jpg

Got rid of the 6 cell, BLT custom built a high torque motor for it and gave it new battery trays.

The Titan got it's own chassis:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/DSC01599.jpg

It's got the lift kit, AWD, and a custom motor that doesn't work for crap. Now, the whole chassis doesn't even work.

It's going to receive this Titan body when I'm finished with it:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/DSC01659.jpg

And, the Bumblebee chassis has received much more GPM:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/IMG_0065.jpg

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v221/ling427ttvette/IMG_0064.jpg

I think that's about it for now, hopefully someday within a month or two I'll have alot more to add.

Nice fat stance back there now.

Decided I didn't like the cowl hood so I took it off, and decided to try these wheels again and I think I like them. I just need to buy another set or two of them...

I agree. I need two more sets, for the Bumblebee and my NSX, because I like those wheels on all of those cars.

Hell, I'd probably rock them on Barricade. :lol:

What length chassis does the new Vette sit on? I don't think I want one of these new chassis but I really want the Vette.

I doubt just the body will be up for sale very soon though.

You bet it is. Car looks complete with it finally. I just need to touch up that shiny spot on the front grille and it should be about perfect. There's a runny spot on the body from the factory or whatever, if I was brave enough I would attempt sanding it but I'm not going to.

I need to put this car on a roller chassis because I really have the urge to take it out and drive it. I won't let my urge get the best of me though.. I would cry if I put a scratch on it. The 67 is by far my favorite Xmod.
