Well ive been a tad busy for some time but did manage to get a few items done, rear ball joints done, shocks fitted, front steering ball joints done and shocks fitted but now to rethink on how to do ball joints at the very front.

I haven't posted the full build here as didn't want to distract from the true geniuses behind the concept of using a front Stealth gearbox to make a 4wd converted RC10. Jeff and Mini.

I have a few. I'd get more, but the prices are usually kinda high. Our new basement is much bigger than the old one, so I'd like to set up a nice flat oval eventually. The mini Z's are just the right size. (and the Losi 1/24 vehicles we've got)
Got a few runs under my belt with my new M-03 Mini.
What a blast of a car!

I have more Tamiyas' in my collection, but this is the most recent one. I got it mainly for tormenting my son around the house. he loves to pick it up and carry it, so theres a small wrinkle on the one side.
