The wing on the back is going to go and the sharpie paint job that I did 3 years ago will be going too. Once I get another Brushless motor, it'll be a runner. I made it just a tad bit too short, the chassis but I'm leaving it alone. Might remove the aluminum and make it a bit longer(the chassis) so it lines up but still need to mount the body and re-do my steering links. This will be the tow rig for my micro Silverado 8)
Started like this

The body that will be used

Will need some extension
