I was checking the Viper and the sides won't reach all the way down. But what I was thinking is that you could cut the back part off and put the mount on the other side and it should work (With the mod I made). Thats one of the options I was leaving out there for my builds... I'm still going to try a couple more bodies and see what I can come up with.

For me, I don't mind that back part cut off because I remember doing that myself back in the day with the Cardinal Houge chassis I had. But I do mind the body sitting on top of the chassis towards the front. Just looks funny.

Ok small update,

I added some dogbones, Team Checkpoint motor, RCP/Losi Steering, and finished the linkage on the front, Id like to replace the fron center link with a black part but all i had was white :? I picked this motor because of age and color, kinda goes with the rest of the build :)

Sorry about the bad pics, to hard to pull out the lightbox for every update lol

Fantastic build. The A&L buggies are always fun to look at.

Those 1.5 paddles look great on there.
