Actually looking at building it from scratch b/c it would be a while till I saved up enough to get one whole.

Plus then I don't have the stock parts laying around that I would have replaced with upgraded stuff.

If I don't make my own tube chassis (tuber is the route I'm probably going) I'm going to get this chassis;

The Crawler Store LLC :: -By Truck: Axial AX10 Scorpion :: TCS "Edge" AX10 Scorpion Direct Bolt on Tube Frame

Looks like a decent deal, and it's already painted black...

Then just get some axial axles, maybe tranny too, and go from there.
