Re: This might be of interest to some???
Took one of the originals back in the early mid 80's got rid of the tranny, took a tranny out of the tamiya frog mounted it side ways in the chassis, made new drive shafts to go from the bruiser axles to the frog trans, mounted 8 of the biggest tires (duals) you could find at the time, used some brass to raise the suspension, painted a F150 body yellow orange and red. Had one dirt throwing RC Monster truck before any one released a monster truck. Took it to an annual RC race in Indy that was called Cabin Fever and got a picture of it in a rc magizine of the time period. It was a lot of fun and at the time got a lot of attention!
