Well we have been on a full country wide lockdown here in NZ for a week and a half from the unprecedented global pandemic. Having done a lot of the home maintenance and DIY jobs I have been meaning to get around to I thought I’d scratch around and see if I could build something from parts. I had most of the suspensions from a T3 I decided to build a truck with a scratch built aluminium chassis

I haven’t got a T3 transmission spare so will use an old school stealth. Rear bulkhead is a RC10GT item

Yeah will brace or make a top deck for it. Not much progress over the last couple of days as the sun has been out

Rebuilt the shocks and roughed out a motor plate

I love the shape of this chassis. Any updates to your build?

Thanks!
