Pimpin' Wit Lincoln - Larger scale build - RC-Monster Forums

lincpimp · 09:25 PM

Ok, so I have been on a crawler kick recently. And I have to have a few projects going at the same time, gotta have something to do while waiting on parts, right?!

So I was looking for a nice scale body for my 1.9 crawler (see other scale thread) and found this navigator. Looked kinda big in the pics, but I had no idea what size it was. Ebay ad stated it had a 9.6v batt so I figured it had to be at least 10th scale. It was 15 bucks buy it now, with another 15 for shipping. 30 bucks is not too bad for a body, and this was complete with interior... So I bought it.

And then the box came...

And it was a big box...

And the truck inside was also big...

So to make a long story even longer, I bought some wheely king axles cheap (widest 10th scale axle that is easy to get parts for) and figured that I could build my own chassis, etc out of what I have hanging around...

Nore to come, but check out the pics of this beast, rollin' on dubs dawg!

So I rolled the bad boy into the shop...

Had to pull the motor first:

Then the system had to come out:

Doing a full custom chassis, so off with the body:

A few snaps of my gangsta interior, big pimpin'!

"Anything less than the best is a felony" Great song! Freaked out some of my brother's friends a few years back when they played it at Rock-N-Bowl and I sang it word for word

That kinda dates you man... I am old, but i never really liked old Ice... Seemed like a poser even back then! I had a similar experience, my buddy is a dj and he plays at the local rock/metal bar. I had him play it and almost everyone in theplace was singing ol vanila's song... I had to laugh, and cry a little bit, sad really... I can't remember the words to my favorite pink floyd songs, but the most random crap from the late 80s and 90s sticks in my head!

I may be dating myself but your still older!

I have no problem admitting to what I listened to when I was in Elementary school. At the time I though Ice was cool, and every once in awhile I still listen to that song.

(hip, hop, hippty to the hop says bang, bang botty to the rhythm of the beat, beat goes your feet common everybody lets dance with the beat! Boom boom ban bodeep) LOL.LOL.LOL.LOL... something like that..

Funny, I spent my entire high school working carreer in the body shop, so it was all the same music you mentioned. Nothing beats rock n' roll!
