Just painted my CobraKen TRX-3 Body

Quote

Post by jeff93063 » Sun Aug 22, 2010 5:45 pm

Here is my new body. I'm really happy with Ken's reproduction. It's nice and thick, has well-defined window lines and fits well. The only thing I noticed is the sides kind of stick out from the chassis. I think I'm going to make some kind of little lexan brackets with velcro to hold them in. I should have gotten the undertray he makes, then I could attach it that way.

By the way, it only took a week to ship from UK to US.

Well, I finally decided it was time to paint the body for this. I always like the look of vitange and haven't really run the truck much due to the modern look. I found a square body that fit the RC10T4 really well. 6 colors is pretty ambitious for...

Front wheel wells are cut further forward because the camber link is so far forward. If you didn't cut them for clearance they would bind and hit the body as the suspension compresses. Mine are all cut too.

Makes sense thanks again, you’ve been...

Good afternoon everyone! I'm in the process of picking up parts (car included) to build a Worlds Car rerelease. I had an original car back in 94, and it was painted in the Kinwald livery. I'm not building a Kinwald replica, instead a nostalgic build...

Did any of the AE bodies ever come pre-painted? I have a Mustang DS body that's painted red and came in the Package.

Thanks,
James
