Bit Limo
I'm new to Tiny RCs....I just got my bit Skyline a couple of weeks ago, and then pcb fried, so I decided to strech the chassis and make a limo out of it. When its done, it will have two sets of drive wheels in the rear. I just want ppl to take a look at the chassis and see if anyone has suggestions on what I can do for a body.

.....hmm dont know what to think..im not much of a limo fan.
but youll probably have to find a suv/hummer body and stretch that also so you can pimp it out or whatever

it wasn't too hard to do, i just cut the chassis with a hot exacto, and sanded the edges. for the extension, i found one of the drive bay covers from a computer that i built. i figured out where the bends should be and heated the plastic a little and bent it by hand to where i needed it. after it was bent i cut off the extra and used model glue to glue it together.

i don't think limo's themselves are very cool but actually making a bit limo is AWESOME!

cool
But instead of a limo why not a truck, a flatbed truck to hall a regular sized bit on.

you got a good eye R.C.Dealer i would have used the bit front, but since my pcb was fried i bought a clone for a replacement pcb. the pcb and the steering in the clone was different, so i just used that.
thanks for the suggestion Slugbugg, but i was already set on a lim, and have started making the body for it. i have two bodies right now. the first one i'm stretching out a clone body and if that doesn't look right i'm going to carve one out of balsa wood.
as far as the pics go, the second motor on the chassis wasn't working so well, so now it will only have one motor on the rear of the car
