Default New Project Truck

Folks bought me this for Christmas this year
In the box, stock.

Out of the box, still stock and that is a 32oz mug in the background, so yes it is that small! I'll post pics with my Mini-T, Rustler, Pede, Wheely King Crawler, and maybe the Jeep later to give a better idea of size.

The cells in this battery pack are about the size of pencil eracers!

Here's the truck after I swapped in full wheel bearings (about 2mmx4mmx2mm!) to replace the plastic bushings, threaded axles and 2mm nuts to replace the microscopic E-Clips (I hate those damn things with a passion!) that normally held on the wheels, new wider front bumper that's wider and made out of a better nylon material that will take impacts better, and last of all, I pulled the stickers off the side and hood to let the factory applied candy red paint shine through

And heres the new front bumper, lined up pretty nice with the body if you ask me
