Nvxwax's A&L Build :) (05/12/12)
Ok so i can never actually make a build thread and show the progress of a build, I also cant seem to get all the parts before i start work lol...
Anyway here is one of my latest projects. I wanted to stay with new parts as much as i could. This car is about 99% new parts as it sits, I could not bring myself to cut up a new bulkhead so i used a nice condition used one. Originally i planned to use A&L steering and trans but when the TPS Trans came along i changed it up a little lol, I love the old chain trans.
I did not do the peroxide treatment to the parts, I wanted this to look as original as possible and i kinda like the old yellowed look lol
Let me know what you think
Aftermarket Parts List:
A&L Trailing Arms chassis set
Team Pitstop Chain Drive Trans
Team Pitstop Slipper Unit
RCP/Losi Front and Rear Alloy Centerline Covers
Parma Linkage
Duratrax Rear 1.6 Paddle Tires
RCP/Losi Steering
Still to add:
AE Viper Body (After seeing the work Orange has done)
And on to the pictures

Thanks guys, I kinda threw this car together pretty fast with no real plan, but with having tax money, it was a little easier to find parts
