The front reinforcement bars look like JG.
I have a set somewhere in the bag.
Neat old racer!

Did not know CRP made them also.
When I come across my JG's I will post a pic for you to compare.
Just read your Parma build, turned out very nice.
Really enjoy reading your post's, full of great pictures and info.
Thanks
Mike

You are correct, they are MRP, but they are made for the Scorpion. MRP did some hop-up parts especially for the Scorpion. They made among other things a complete frontend and some bodies.

I have found out after installing it that this front end was actually meant for a Tamiya SRB. The front MRP arms you have on your other scorpion are the correct hop up

Did Pro-Line ever make a front end for the Scorpion?
I have trailing arms made by them.

To my knowledge they only made the rear trailing arms especially for the Scorpion. And they shared a bumper with RC10.

You are right, I was an upgrade for the RSB to have Scorpion front end. And it was an upgrade for the Scorpion too.

Awesome!

The reinforcing for the front end looks like it would be pretty hard on the plastic radio tub :?
