You said cheap. Wow you must be new to the hobby! You will get tired of a car that only goes 15, trust me. I would suggest buying a Losi Mini-T. I think the Pro version is a build to suit model. An RTR model is like 150$ and the stock replacement parts are cheap. If you want to make it faster or upgrade to aluminum/ fiber there are a ton of parts out there. Mine started out stock and is now totally aluminum, I’ve had it up to 45+ mph.

Answer by Wolf Harper
You know the guy down the street who restored a classic muscle car? The guy did not get that fine machine by sitting in the house drinking beer 
Needless to say he spent a great many evening and weekend that he could’ve spent doing something else, “more fun”. He learned 100 new craftsman skills. He skinned a few knuckles. A lot of people would wonder why. “Can’t he hire that done?” Um, nope… you couldn’t afford to pay people to do that detail of work. Besides the project isn’t exactly portable. Face it – for this guy it was a labor of love.
That’s what it takes to convert an electric car cheaply. It won’t cost nearly as much as hiring the job done, but it will be “your baby” and thus, priceless to you.
