I bought this buggy about 4 years back and had almost forgotten about it. Correct me if i'm wrong but I think it uses stampede running gear. can someone confirm this. Eventually I would like to replace all the plastic with aluminum parts. Here it is, comments welcome

That's very nice.
The rear end is stampede/rustler/slash, so there should be plenty of choices for aluminum parts.

WOW!

That looks AWESOME! What would really be cool is... working lights! Not LEDs, but actual incandescent bulbs old school style Very nice buggy you have there.

How do you almost forget about owning something like that?

I guess if a person owns as many incredible R/C's as you do one can slip through the cracks.

Cool

I actually just ran across a TC3 that I bought a year ago(sorta NIB) that was never assembled so I can kinda understand forgetting a car, but I wouldn’t forget this! That thing is a Cream Dream! If comments are truly welcome I would go black or silver with the shocks along with the aluminum parts. You can prolly get them for what you sell those purple ones for. I would re-route the wiring so it’s not so obtrusive. Other than that my only observation is the curious choice of a Tamiya plug. Might have come with the rig for all I know. That is truly a unique and awesome ride though!

Nice ride. I always loved Boyer's chassis. I had one a few years back but need to sell.

nice i wanted one when they came out but the chassis alone goes for $199 so i said no... do the lights work???? any vids of this in action??? if the lights work a night/late day vid would be cool too ... i found this but i think its home made stuff [youtube]RykfwBgPIKI&feature[/youtube]

thats a cool rail I couldnt forget I had that!

Today I got a chance to fart around with this buggy. I switched the back shocks with the fronts to give it more travel up front. The main thing is I took Sofaking's idea of using extra spacers and used a set of Lohas wheels the sand tires on this buggy.

That's an absolutely beautiful car! I particularly like the flames, only because the flame proportions are more correct-to-scale--unlike the garish & oversized, exaggerated, shaded, conflicting-colored flame-jobs you see on so many RC bodies nowadays.

Those Lohas wheel really set it off!!!

Damn! Just keep adding to the gallery!

Love it!!!!
