This is my first venture into the world of Traxxas and I have a feeling it's going to be my only one. It was my interest in early trucks that's brought this model into my collection and I have to say for all the quality issues it's still a great addition to my collection.
I was lucky to pick this up new built from Scr8p who was also patient enough to wait until I chose a paint scheme that he was kind enough to apply for me.
So I hope you all like

those wheels won't work on the front. they require a different set of axles. you can convert the truck, but it's just different parts.
you can use the spindle/axle/bearings/upright(or c-hub) from something like a bandit in order to use those...
From what I can see in pics, it appears that all 3 of these trucks have the same body. Next question, where can I find one of these? Original or re-pro.

I actually prefer the boxy look of the Hawk body over the Nitro Hawk, but the original is so hard to find. Might go with a JRX-T body or something similar if I can find. I`m not a huge fan of today`s stadium truck bodies, they all look the same to...
