I must add pics! My transmission is in place, only waiting on shocks and front CVD's now!

You'd need to ask Joel and Akira but it's part of the Tomahawk body set. He raced with the Tomahawk body you see in the pics it's the original shell.

It's no reproduction it's the original real car

That'd be interesting

Nice car :) I just finished the original and sending it back to Joel soon :) http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y260/SDRCC/Joel%20Johnson%201987%20Ultima/20151009_164622_zps1by0m425.jpg http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y260/SDRCC/Joel%20Johnson%201987%20Ultima/20151009_135732_zpspf39ltim.jpg http://i7...

The car is now finished and will be sent back to Joel shortly. I've really enjoyed working with Joel, Dirk and all at OSRC and many other friends around the globe returning the car to as it left the track in 1987 when Joel won his 2wd world title.

Jeff I'm liking the lipo trays, may need to get me some

How is the servo mounted in that orientation? Did you need to drill? I might just be slack and use servo tape

and when they are released you better believe I'm a buyin'

The hexes shouldn't slip on the taper shaft if the wheel is tightened with nut, strange

I remember when I found a shrinkwrapped original RC10 worlds kit and some people doubted it actually had a kit inside, people saying I should take it to the airport xray as it could be full of rocks - made me laugh!

Nice score on the graphite! Saw it on facebook, lovely

Hi All,

Please use this link for all rebuild updates, one stop shop for Joel Johnson's Ultima rebuild (easier than updating multiple forums/facebook groups):
