Anyone running a short course body on a Monster Truck?

Recommended Posts

I had my savage out earlier and left it to dry out on a tarpaulin, then happened to plonk my Slash on top of it. I then noticed it actually looks quite good with a short course body on it so I tried it in place proper. Looks like it would fit ok with maybe a bit of trimming around the wheel arches.

I was then thinking I might get a HPI Blitz body perhaps. Just wondered if anyone else out there running short course body on a monster truck? Please post photos up if possible.

I've run my Savage with them in the past, here it is with a Slash shell:

And here it is with a Blitz shell:

They did require a lot of trimming to clear the wheels. I love the look, but they are a pain when jumping due to parachuting.

Looks great.

How a SCT should look - but I am biased!

 

As mentioned, take care with the arches - steering will probably snag the body.

Great look.

 

Closest I have is this:

 

It was meant to be that way 'though, and the body's narrower than that Dodge Ram.
