     Is that a regular model kit, that you are taking the body and putting on a rc car ?

How well will the model body hold up? Can't imagine they are too sturdy.  Sounds like a cool project, keep us posted!

     I was thinking the same thing, and yes my wife would probably not be happy either.   ;D

lol im going to make a course out of my dually's body starting from the hood going over the top at a angle, to the bed over both inside wheelwells up to my tool box to the inside to the dash and out the back again so it could be fun and tricky to run the little rc truck on the coarse. just for a size reference to you guys the thing is about 6 inches long by 2.5 wide so it is pretty small

the rc im getting is a much better grade than what radio shack has as its is a hobby grade. which means its got better durability and is able to be repaired easy if broken. the one im getting comes with locked diffs and all time 4 wheel drive. heres what the rc looks like stock

also here is a link to a video a guy made of the truck you can get size of about how big it is as he uses toothpicks for trail markers
