I found a box in my work shop, opened it up and found a suprise. My old beater Clod. So I pulled it out and started cleaning it up. Found it to be in good shape other than a cracked axle tube. I am going to rebuild it and get it running again, it would make a good Rock Racer.

I will post some picks later.

I love finding R/C stuff that you forget you have.

I also found about 6 more of these chassis sets too. So if you need a bash / crawler chassis for you Clod axles let me know, I will give you a super deal.

Here are some pics. that I found, This is not the truck I found, this one I actually built and sold. The one I found is exactly the same just much more used.

I think in total I sold around 35 of these chassis, but the Clod craze turned to scale 1.9s and 2.2s and sales dropped off, but it is still a fun truck to bash, I can wait to get it going again.

It is almost done now, just need to get an axle tube. It is not much of a crawler, but it makes a great basher. :banana:

I have the axle tubes on the way. I should have this running for the Comp. I had to put a stupid Jeep body on it, I may try to get a new body on before next week.

Got some tubes then huh? I had a bag with your name on it for this weekend but I'm definitely fine with hanging onto them! I'm sure I'll be needing them after I get the nylint going.

You still want that styrene this weekend? It's sitting in my garage. Still want to sell those clod rims?
