I gotta ask, how did you form the body? Did you cut out a big 1 piece blank, then put all the "breaks" in in? Or did ya hafta put it together w/nuts & bolts? Or spot welds? As you can tell, I'm very interested in your process because I've ventured into custom body making as well. Also made out of aluminum 👍

The body started as a flat sheet of 1/16. WickedRc makes em. Seems i got the last one every made lol. Took months of me pushing them to ship one to me. Immediately after that they stopped selling them.
