It's been sitting in my garage for many years. Never run...

Now that I really like. Looks like you may be missing a rear drive shaft? (Pic 2)

Yeah, this was bought by the ex because she liked the look of it. the dogbone is likely in the collection of spare parts. This thing has never been run, nor even properly finished.

That does look quite unique...rather unusual shock alignment, how well does the suspension work? I know it didn't work too well with my buddy's Buffalo that I resto-modded...I was able to improve the front suspension smoothness quite a bit just by swapping out the AYK mono-shock with a single Kyosho Gold shock, but I couldn't do much about the 2 rear shocks on that car.

There was a lot of binding at the pivots, and that's before getting to the marginal shocks.
