NICE!!!

I love the golden anodized gearbox and arms!

The gearbox looks like dhawk racing but what about the arms? GPM?

any ideas for the body?

Will be keeping my eye on this!

The gearbox is a rogue elements and the arms are gpm. For the body I was thinking about Smokey and the Bandit.

Really nice! You got that black and gold thing going one, how about a Smokey Yunick replica body. Vintage for sure, probably not done often.

Smokey and the bandit would be perfect. The gold cross laced wheel covers would be just right

Funny you are thinking of doing a Smokey and the Bandit body....I recently acquired a nitro DS with a modern firebird body.

It looks great but gearbox needs a little work. Eventually I will get around to bringing it back to life but may change that body.

I was wondering how long it would take somebody to notice it. I bought a parts car and it came with it but it is glued.
