How many holes does it need to sit on a shelf, or in a box in the shed? I'm sure @klavy69 will tell us....

:P :P :P

Its one of Jerry Hellstrom's. Its not perfect but Its got the essential holes needed. The rest can be drilled as/where needed. I've been wanting to build one of these up but this will be run on concrete so I didn't want to tear up an original.

Come on Alex...no sheds for me anymore...its all in the basement, computer room and front porch :lol:

Thanks, It was a local hobby shop. I just found them by chance as they were not searchable on their web page.

Fantastic OEM Demon motor labels came in the mail today. I have a Power King modified that needs a replacement for it's blanked out label and a stock that has a non motor Demon label. I'll have to think a bit before removing the red decal. maybe I'll ha to warm the can so it comes off with minimal damage to it. Excellent care package dinglem! Thank you sir!

edit: the little red label didn't have to come off, it fit well between the ends of the new label. My band of Demons are looking pretty spiffy now. 👹

My next project. I want to see what I can do with FWD on the carpet oval. It shouldn't work, but we shall see...

The Yokomo bits are just body posts to put the dirt oval body on my Storm.

A nice couple of trucks showed up last week. The big one looks to have been a shelfer since maybe Day 2. It's almost immaculate. The little guy doesn't have a remote. It turns on but I assume I can't pair it with anything. If not, no big deal. I have plans.... 😁

If I think about them as custom aluminum mounts the price hurts less.

I got something so exciting, I already forgot what it was. :lol: I will have to check again after racing tonight.

Safe bet is that it was a spare something for one Schumacher or another.
