8-t 1.0 with 2.0 body... simple.
This is some cell pics of my proline bulldog 2.0 body on my 1.0 chassis. I bought 0 parts and shaved 1 of the rear body mount tabs flat on 1 side and cut body to length, i raised the front body mounts up 1 hole as well to get it to clear the shocks.... that simple :)

what color is that, looks good on the wing too
|
i went with a Pactra - fiery orange. I love it.. took about 3 passes to get it dark enough, its very sparkly when sprayed but has a nice finish.
|
You painted the wing? Doesn't it flake off when the wing flexes?
Looks good btw. |
Thanks. From what ive read and heard from people Pactra is a very flexible paint, far more flexible then Tamiya, which i have had very poor results with on my last 2 bodies, after the first cartwheel half the paint just fell off... i also coated the underside of the body with Shoe Goo lightly so protect the paint and the body from cracking.

dont plan on crashing ;)

I looked at mounting the 2.0 body on my 1.0 once. Seems like I decided you could drill the body mounts, then move them down to where the wing mount attaches to the shock tower (which is where the posts are on a 2.0) and just run a longer screw through. This would allow you to run the 2.0 body on the 1.0 at the proper height. Then I remembered I didn't want to drive a car that looked like a potato bug, and I bought another 1.0 body :D. I like your paint color though.
