Datsun 720 4WD
Project complete. TLT based, Mauri Big Bear body, 4WD, locked diffs, Integy 55t lathe motor, working fan behind grill. This project took way to long, mostly because I'm lazy, but is now complete. Still need to re-route wires but is up and running. Ground clearance is a little low so I might end up changing the tires to mudslingers. But all in all, I am quite pleased with the result. I figure I better take some pics now before I tear it up.

Excellent use of the Datsun body - great truck ! Gone straight into my favourites .

Looks great buddy, the TLT makes a great scale truck. The mudslingers will really improve grip as well.

Nice! What is the gold 'shock' in the steering area? Servo saver? Sweet looking

Thanks. The gold 'shock' is a steering stabilizer. A lot of off road trucks have them.

Great use of a TLT chassis. I like the 'Snow Tracks' picture!
Very nice! If I ever see a Mauri for sale I will get it. You have an eye for details.

I love it. I'm such a Nissan/Datsun fan. I wish Tamiya released a 3-speed Datusn 720 of some sort.
