Amazing build. It looks just like the car you modeled it after. I am so curious how it would drive!

Thanks Alex,
They go hand in hand with the old Cadillac Swiss Cheese theme, aviation and a pinch of steam punk.

Thank you so much guys!
Unfortunately I lack the knowledge in CAD and CNC which I think is necessary if to construct a "conversion kit"
All is hand made with hand tools except for a crappy chinese mill and Dremel.
Though it would be awesome to offer you guys such a kit.

Brushless Stealth tranny done for the RC10 FF.
Grinded of a reinforcement knee on the housing to accommodate a stronger shock tower as I want to route the motor wires through the hole in the bulkhead.

Wheel base is identical but the layout is so different!

Like someone else said while I'm not a fan of the FF concept itself the craftsmanship and execution of this build is fantastic.
I was old school - when old school wasn't cool !

Shock tower 2.0
I wanted to route the motor wires through the bulkhead hole so a new shock tower had to be made.
This change resulted in that I had to grind of a small portion of the gearbox, but it had no structural support.. I think.
