So maybe it’s time for Associated to put that beauty out! Royalties to you for such a nice job. I’d have one.

Great car. Do you know what size MIP CVD's? Are they B4 or a mash-up of parts? Also, is that B6 hubs and knuckles up front? I'm hoping to make similar updates to mine. Thanks

Question about the Traxxas 7171 rear wheels. Do they have the right offset, or do the shorten or lengthen the rear wheelbase. Thanks again Yes, the offset is correct. It might not be exactly the same as original but it falls within spec. And it's track width, not wheelbase. Wheelbase is front to re...

I guess I should have expected it. Anyway, now I've got a car I'm terrified to run. Its very refreshing to find people with the ...

Hi,

Here's what I measure. Hope it helps.

Thanks for posting the info. It helps. As for you car, it’s really nice! Definitely fine art. Maybe too nice run! Well at least use a basher shell when you do.

It looks awesome! Like fine art to me. After being away from the hobby for while it’s great to see cars like this. I’ve seen the Neo-Vintage sight, and the cars there are all awesome. AE and Kyosho were my favourites back in the day. I’ve been thinking of updating my old 91 Team Car with all Dhawk, ...
