Hi all,
Well the ground is nice and white with snow here in Indiana and it's that time of year to find a winter project to feed my r/c addiction until spring brings new opportunities to drive once again. For my winter project I have chosen to build a nitro tc3 from the chasis up. The idea for the project came to me after I received my ntc3 I have now with a new chasis nip (I traded with a guy on rcu). I recently traded an old dtx evader buggy for a boat load of ntc3 parts and I am currently anxiously awaiting the ups guy to drop them at my door step. From what I have been told, everything I will need to build a second ntc3 is included minus electrics and the spur gears are trashed. I have already found the build instructions online and printed them out. If anyone has anything they can share as far as tips on how to make it easier, or faster it will be greatly appreciated. This is my first build so I can use all the advice I can get. As always thank you in advance to anyone who can help.

Yep I have one that is already put together, so this will make my 2nd, but I'm missing some odds and ends like the hex drive nuts, turn buckles, etc, so it will be a while before I can start building. The first 2 pix attached are of my ntc3 that is already built, and the last pic is of the box of parts I just got. Plus my avatar pic is of the one that's built, just with a different body.
