couldnt buy a black fast traxx!!! so i put one together
« on: September 29, 2010, 11:49:36 »
got bored and had a nice black bandit body on a 49 mhz chassis that i was wanting to use to play with the my boys in the yard along with a 27 mhz bandit and rebound, and as everyone probaly seen i been hunting for a red bandit body to use as a thrasher so i killed to to birds with one stone, i swapped the red/orange color fast traxx truck body with the bandit and swapped windshields and roll bars and rear bumper from each body so that the bandit fast traxx looks like you would expect a bandit traxx to look like if they wouldve made one and the red body has the bandit parts on it, thought about stripping the stickers from the red body but decided not too. all and all the bandit traxx turned out to look better than i had expected....pics soon to come soon as i find my usb cable.


what would be nice is if i could figure out a way to get some bandit stickers scanned while on one of the bodies and reproduce a  hundred sets or so, then i could put a set on the red body and eventually sell the rest

cant wait to see this. the red fast traxx stickers would have looked cool on the black body though. sorry there haven't been anymore black fast ttraxx trucks up for sale since i got that one. :-\

hard to say, it looks pretty sharp with the bandit get up on it, just wish there was a way to mount the bandit chrome bumper on in a way that it would look like it belongs and not just added

sorry for the delay, got side tracked but heres the bandit traxx, mind the dust on it in the picture, its usually nice and shiny but i couldnt resist. only thing its really lacking is some new traxx. it has the fast traxx bumper, roll bar, and windshield, and has definateley become my favorit bandit

the bandit chassis now sports the red fast traxx truck body with the bandits windshield, bumpers, and roll bar.




ps thinking bout selling the yellow fast traxx truck, or trading it off, really dont need it now that i have this bandit one
