sweet build. I'd be all for doing one but the beetle bodies are almost $100 if you can even find one.

Yea I got mine on ebay for like $30 now it didnt have all the chrome hardware tho which is the expensive stuff to get but I added leds so didnt really need those. My other beetle body is for the monster beetle I have and its the original tamiya body with all the hardware so it stays on that lol.
