    Hey hunter so I was thinking about something, tell me if I'm crazy
    You got extra honcho cabs, would it be possible to make a double cab body by joining two cabs? I can't find anything on it. I'm not sure if putting two lexan bodies is possible

    Itd look cool but youd have to plastic weld the cab together... Just not possible... Its be melted and never smoothed

    Using my crappy picture chopping skills I came to the conclusion it wouldn't look so bad if done decently.....

    Could you part a cab also?
    I am willing to do what it takes to have a double cab :D

    The other cab I have is already chopped up for the wraith mod... Have to cut holes in the back window and also most of the back of the "cab" silver colored portion to fit it on the wraith... Youd have to strech the chassis of the SCX10 in order for the double cab idea to work

    So no is the answer to your question! But only because you won't be able to use it :laughing:

    I hear that a lot too.....but I have yet to see one do so, or hear from someone who has had one explode. seems to always be a friend of a friend of a friend had one "explode". and by explode, they mean catch on fire, usually when it was used improperly (ie: discharged too far or discharged too quickly). I don't doubt that plenty of people have caught them on fire, but i'd assume it's a lot of user error.
