I thought I'd throw in something a little different. A retro B44, Had everything anodized a orange-gold color and had Jeff cut out the chassis in natural G10 material, Then installed some random vintage electronics I had. 1700 Sanyo's, Tekin ESC,Reedy motor, Airtronics servo and receiver. Then topped it off with a traditional retro paint job and Hot-laps tires..

A lot of good ones will make this a really hard choice for me this month. Do we disregard any that don't have their placeholder post updated by 3/5 deadline?
My opinion is the placeholder tactic shouldn't continue; if your pictures are ready to go, you post and enter the contest. If not, join next month.

Big fan of the b44, I love mine! Very creative to "retro-up" one, I love it!

My choice this month was based on different criteria than before; in the past, I've focused on a combination of color scheme consistency, completeness and tidiness of the electronics. This time around, with this batch of contestants, one stood out because of the customizing and modernizing and the overall quality & execution of the mods. Congrats, DHood!
