I'm not sure what the going rate on a mostly stock Clod is these days...

I don't really want to sell it it's just I hate wiring the electronics. They are a pain in the rear end. Can I wire the 2 seperate battery wire together that way I can run 1 8 cell 4600? I have no room for 2 of these 8 cells.

Yes you can... You just need to jumper one of the plugs.

A stock clodbuster chassis isn't setup very well for dual batteries...

No... you need to connect one set of wires to the batter, and the other black + red wires get connected to each other... It should be in the manual for the speed control
