You are not quite finished. I believe there is something amiss with the front tower...

Can I make a guess? Did the tower used to rock from side to side with a single bolt mounting the plate to the bulk head?

I know the bodyshell from the Boost was incorporated when the Dunn brothers ran the saddle chassis plate. Definately used at St Ives back in 89.

For the front shock tower, I don't know if I use the rocker at the World I have no pics from the front of the car / poor angle ..., maybe Mike or Steve or JHarris can confirmed?

The white rear toe in , miss too, but for now I don't want to cut the rear black parts...

I need 2 rear body post , If any body have this, thanks in advance...

Do you need a pic of the front tower mod? Or just not sure if Mike's car had that setup in the 89 Worlds?

My Radiant has it, if you need to see a pic, I can snap some for you.

Yes, Mike's 89 worlds car used the "flipity flop" front shock tower. I missed the white parts mod you mentioned. He used rc10 carriers in the rear if that's what your talking about.

I took a couple shots for you. The tower's drilled in the middle of the two original holes (on the chassis too), then the lower left/right portions were shaved a bit and act as limiter for the side to side sway.

It has Kyosho's in the front (from the Lazer/Mid, I think), and RC10 in the rear. Mine came with the mods when I got it.

No recent ones, unfortunately. I haven't really done much to the car since I got it.
