I converted a 8e backdraft into a vw bug monster beetle. I will have pics in the morning and this thing is a BLAST to drive. It has stock 8e gearing and even with the center diff still rips the fronts up! The body is a Proline bug revo 3.3 shell with candy halographic base and fire with skulls on the sides. For the money I have in this thing - what a blast!! :p ;) :D
 
Here are some pics :)

Handles great Ron! The wheels are offset enough so its stable - this is a very fun truck. I will get back into the 5th scale again this month, always on here reading and I must say.... this is a very good forum! Not the BS you get from alot of them. I will have a vid tomorrow too - I really do enjoy these 8e vehicles. :D
