proline 1980 chevy pickup fits very nicely.
also, I just did hier's vorza esc tray mod a couple of days ago and it was well worth doing. made the esc very beefy.
awesome truck you got there. I'm jealous. |

Ah that one I just a good quality double sided tape and a zip tie and it's been holding up well, even after landings that bent my frame  . I think others have been using the vorza esc tray which apparently works well |

Picked it up local for 450 with two sets of proline badlands.
Happy with it. It was only raced on a track never had a real beating laid in it. I will
Fix that. Just stripping it down and cleaning it all up. So far all I have done is purchase the
Vorza esc holder. Going to look at a few local hobbies shops for a new body. The stock is toast and will be used for heavy bashing |

This is a great video showing you how to do the vorza tray mod. Honestly, watch all of hier's videos. Every one of his ideas that I have used are all working out great. Truck holds up much better now. |
