Tragedy...a little violin playing...a small brief moment of silence......and onto shipment 3.0...the mod came out nice and clean tho the gods will forgive.
Nice parts roster!

Hey, got plenty of the Trinity 4/40 nuts too-

cant decide what rear arm mounts to use, HG or trinity, decisions.. decisions...

Kinwald blue wins everytime!

Its been a few months since i had worked on this truck, and a few more shipment of parts had shown up, including a set of uber rare factory orange wheels!! and after assembling some of the parts and pieces, i have realized that a GTX pro graphite is what i really wanted, not a NXT.. its a good thing a lot of the stuff i bought are gtx parts not nxt parts..

so here are some photos of the progress being made and awesome parts as they show up.

Man those assemblies look great with the classic combination of blue anodised parts alongside the silver/grey marble appearance of the Losi graphite mouldings, the orange springs along with the wheels will really set this build off when its all done!

Well done on building something different, this is going to be something special!

P.S; I love those MIP shock cartridges, would love to find a set of those for myself

Wow! Awesome! I never knew those existed - I dyed a set for myself a while ago but the orange didnt quite come up as nice as these! I like the little aluminium screws too - nice touch!

If I found a set of those wheels i'd have to do another XXT build I think

that's because they don't..... lol....
they were a custom pour at the factory Ive been told

alright guys n gals.... this thing is that much closer to being done thanks to my dear ol friend Reggie!!!!

Check it, super RAD!!!

next up will be wheels n tires, then the body.... still on the search for a bad ass nova rossi or a ron paris with appropriate pipe.

Very nice, I dig the consistency in your color scheme! It actually reminds me of our local NHL hockey team's colors, the Edmonton Oilers.

Yup, it looks killer. The purchase of that engine is going rip Your wallet

I'm 99% that the place we hit last time you were here has a Paris 1/10 pipe- want me to call them?
