You should let me anodize those nose and wing tubes for you.

They're supposed to be plain. I even bought "classic" nose tubes so I didn't have to strip the black worlds ones I had.

very niiice!

I know you built this to sell to me, thanks.

Those wheels turned out great!!
Was it dilute rit you used?

You can't have this one, but I can help you build one of your own.

Yeah, RIT Golden Yellow powder. I didn't measure or anything, just sprinkled some into a 5 quart pot of hot water.

Delrin is on the lathe now...should be complete this weekend.....

Looks like I have something else to add to the list. Just opened my rere Worlds box, let me break that in a bit.

Some of the electronics have shown up for this. My idea is to use modern versions of the electronics in the original. So I'll be using a Novak Pulse V2 esc in place of the Novak M1c, a Reedy Mach 2 17.5 motor in place of the Reedy Ultra (17.5 just in case I decide to maybe use this car at the Vonats instead of my Maezumi replica), an Airtronics 94771m digital servo, Reedy shorty lipo, and I went with an OrangeRX Fasst receiver to use with my Futaba radio. I went with this mainly because of the color to play off the Novak NER-3fm in the original. It also has the translucent orange like the Novak ESC case.

Man that's nice!
Looking forward to seeing the electrics fitted.

The Pulse V2 is kinda fugly..... and large. With the built in caps I was kinda worried that the body would lay on them because it's so tall. It's close, but it does clear. I could have gone with one of their small esc's like the edge or something like that. But to me it needed to be a high end version. And, i was able to get a new one at a good price. Now, I have to remove the heat sink and send it out for blue ano, then have a little bit of milling done to it to mimic the original.

The car looks great Jason!

I'm not a big replica fan so I don't get much out of them (insert scr8p throwing tomatoes at me while on stage) but I really dig the updated versions like this. To me its the builders version of the next stage and I think it follows through pretty good. and this is coming from a vintage traxxas guy
