Yet another project started for me...13 year old Demon car
So my youngest son (who races occasionally ) is becoming a teenager this year. His favorite colors right now are red and black. He is 'bored' with his T4 and B4, so I decided to build up a B stamper for him.
First thing, get all black parts, second, a nice chassis to turn red...
Red chassis (ignore the truck and B3 parts please )
Counter sink it up...
And slap some parts on it...
I've ordered ball studs and cups, I have worlds steering (in white, darn it). I am deciding if I will be going old style shocks or pick up a set of re-re threaded (leaning that way due to this will be a racer), not thinking I had a set of gold set aside before a spur of the moment decision for a red chassis (was gonna be gold/black). Need to find black nose tubes and wing tubes. I dont want silver on here, dont think I want the JC ones either...they have silver accents. It will be as close to a roller as I can get it by his birthday (next weekend, LOL).
Yes, I just started on it tonight...

Re: Yet another project started for me...13 year old Demon c
I've ordered up black 8/32" 100 degree alloy screws for this build. I cant bring myself to use the green or blue that is offered by AE. Waiting on that and a few other bits to keep moving forward with this build. It will take a couple weeks, but it will get done Then onto my other 7 builds currently sitting....patiently....waiting

got a Tower order in yesterday, so more progress will be made today. Still need some final bits to make it a full roller though.

Re: Yet another project started for me...13 year old Demon c
Not much progress, spent too much time on the NIX91 and started the 'sister' build on the red/black truck (well layed out all the parts and made a list of what I am missing for it).
Got ball studs/turnbuckles done and installed

Really loving this build and the colors. Did you actually dye the chassis with RIT?
