My son really wants a gas truck like his pop. The problem is I don't have $300 laying around to buy him one.
Can I buy a GT in pieces? I'm looking at towerhobbies and everything starts at $200. Does a product exist where you can buy just the frame, for example? I realize spending a little bit of money here and there is going to cost more in the end, but it won't be a big hit to the bank account.
I was thinking like $75-100 at a time. I don't imagine any one part exceeding that budget, but what do I know. I'm a newbie.
any suggestions?

update: I did find some stuff. if I wanted to clone my maximum ST, I found a chassis:

I suppose I could find everything and just duplicate what I see on my truck. (maybe buy the better parts)
