Picked up a Capra on Black Friday which turned into buying two and ending up with one 4WS & dig.
First run with it was fun, and set me off to mods...
Shocks were first on the list, got some 90mm SSD springs and essentially pen springs. The springs drop it down a bit and the springs under the pistons give me some good droop action.
Got some Treal wheels which turned out to send me on a Treal spree, now have 8mm hexes, brass portal cover F & R, and add on weights on the front.
Along with the Capras I'd bought a CC Mamba Micro X V2 W/Slate 2280kv combo which was great, good low end control and plenty of wheel speed for mild bashing. However, an RC buddy of mine turned me onto 3Bros Black Jacket sensored outrunners, my interest has been piqued in these since Holmes started an RCC thread on them 15 years ago. So I picked up the 2000kv variant.
I just finished stripping, degreasing, and regreasing F & R axles and got all the brass installed.
Along with the outrunner I got a 10t pinion, the stock trans case has to have the adjusting holes extended for it to fit. After getting it out I decided to just get an alu case, Treal of course. It handles down to a 7t.
For the wheels I got some LockedUp RC 2.5mm acorn nuts and washers along with some 10mm SS grub screws from McMaster.
Also happened to have some 5mm SS acorn nuts I'd bought for something or other a few years ago so using those for wheel nuts.

Now onto the title meaning...
Years ago I'd started a couple builds that like many of my others never finished. But these two I wish I'd had, Bushwhacker Hacker and a Doka.
