Here's a custom project I've been working on using a B2 short chassis roller as a base. It involved removing the center portion of the Tamiya Fast Attack Vehicle chassis and narrowing the B2 chassis, and mating them together in two locations. This project also features Dynotech B3 front carpet arms and front hex conversion. Still a work-in-progress.
Thanks for looking!

Wasn't there a sand buggy/sand rail chassis available for converting a B2/B3? I thought I remembered a thread about it a while back and the kit was pretty affordable.
Does anyone have the link to that thread?

Nice project. Looks very capable. I wish 2WD racing buggies looked more realistic like this.
