Mark - I'll take another look at the 1/10 wheel options. A couple of other questions for you...
The truck came from ebay, and included a blue ali chassis which doesn't look like its had any use, as well as the original plastic one. Now I'm not a big bling fan - I just want it to work properly and have fun..., so after also reading that the DP Gear Cover which I want to get might not fit on an ali chassis, I'm thinking of stripping it and rebuilding everything on the original chassis. Is this a good idea or does the ali chassis add any real benefits to the way it drives (only thing I can think of is it would be more rigid)???
Also, while it looks like its had fairly light use, I do believe its quite an old model, as it didn't have the little brass sleeves over the diff outdrives (I've just bought some 8mm olives) and on the original box it says '280' motor, and I think the later trucks had a Super 370 can. However, there's no writing on the can to confirm either way (that I can see with it in-situ), so do you know if theres any other way to tell which motor it is? Like length or diameter?
Cheers
BB
