Hi every body!

Let me show you my last delirium: Remember, I bought 3 cars: A sand rover, a Dt-03 and a Holiday Buggy...
With the two first I builted my GrassHopper II EVO2, and my Sand Rover Kustom...

What about the third?

I still had a lot of pieces, including a new Holiday Buggy body... 1 million of A arms (at least) , screws, springs, dampers , ESC, motor, drivetrain, chassis, wheels, tyres...

Still missing:
lower arms screw pin 2.50€
Adjustables drive shaft 5.60€
Ball bearing set 5.92€
Tramiya Drive cup 7.50€
Tamiya bevel gear set 7.70€

Ok! I respect the budget! Let's go!

Starting point:

But a problem remains: Why is this frame so wide? It's ridiculous!

Let's think, the challenge is to produce a low cost runner...
So I started by cutting front arms until flush the first hole.

To fit front dampers, I realized two small screws Withs two different thread : M4 & M3

nice work Gilles. do you want to paint the body boxart?

Hi Stingray, paint on Holiday's shell is impossible... because of polyethylene. But however it will be "box art".

Same with a primer? But the boxart is cool

And what about the rear axle? Same treatment! Easy!

Two front arms and the same modification except the lower fixation point for the damper.
(As you can see the frame isn't new.)

I modified two originals upper arm.

And I installed 2 adjustables drive shaft.

Yes because of the release agent which is in the plastic (Zinc stearate ).

Hi boys! Resumption of hostilities.

On her wheels: (under fenders now)
Rear.

Front:

The original pilot seemed angry... So I fired him and hired a Sand Scorcher driver
found in my scrapyard... (He looks like Sebastien Loeb, No?)

That's all Folks! Now I'm working on an old FAV. See you later!
