That is actually really badass.
I had to buy the 90's style fullsize tahoe body from Bolink to get a blazer body for my Clodbuster....
SEEMS LIKE I AM GOING TO DROP ANOTHER 90 BUCKS!!!!

You can drive them, you just can't ride in them 
It's a fun break, especially when all the real fun vehicles are broken. And I never cry when I roll my RC rock crawler.

$90?? It only says $33 for the body and $7 for the extended body mounts?? Or am I missing something else?
that body is actyally very tough compared to the lexan of a few years ago. i have been thinkin about making one a fulltop. im not a big fan of lexan though, i only have hardbody clodbuster shells. i actually think this miniature wheeling is equally fun if not more than my fullsize rig. a LOT cheaper too!

In the hobby shop they should go for 30 like every other Proline body.
A few year's ago they did an old school 'cruiser body, then discountinued it. It's worth over 100 now.

how come every blazer or truck model you see is the 70's body. I prefer the 80's since thats what I own. I would really consider buying one of those if it had the right front end on it.
that one you gotta make with a clodbuster body and some time

Just to clarify for people not into RC, what you are looking at is an optional body for various 1/10 scale truck's, not the complete truck.
heres a fellow ck5ers truck that i really like. BOWTIE is the black and gold
kinda long but some pretty cool stuff in there.

Bowtie,
who makes the frames, and stuff like that? not the ones with the wheels way out but the one with the normal wheels.
EDIT: found out that its made from scratch. what is that like plastic c-channel?
where do you find all the supplies should someplace like hobbytown have it?
and what did you use for winch cable?
how did you make the bumpers?
and finaly about how much does it cost to build this stuff?
Thanks

dont knock the rusty
Dont knock on the rusty. I have two of them. One is normal the other is all aluminum. I have around 600 in just one of them alone. my buddies car is well over a grand. i like it though. It will run close to 70 mph. Its sucks being in iraq when you break it though cause i have to wait for at least 7 days for a part.
