Thanks

I finally had time to sit down and begin converting my re-re worlds to Ten4 :mrgreen: Just a couple of questions that have come up: I have drilled out the hole in the stealth, so that the flange of the inner part of the pulley now goes in to the gearbox. Do I need to do that with the shapeways front...

That Kogawa Tribute Is a real looker. I like that a LOT. It's very RC10-ish. Thank you ;-) Not sure how well the mono-shock one would have worked. There were very few mono shock cars in the hobby world, and none raced with any seriousness, I assume there's a reason for that. I loved the way the Fox...

What you said, yellowdatsun!

The remaining parts are on the way to me from mk-zero :mrgreen: Should be here by the end of the week.

The Ultima would be the next "easy one" to re-release. But I hope they're up for the challenge to do the Optima first

They're mine. I just found the pics of them in the same folder as I had saved the pics from Akira-san, and decided to put them up

A couple of new pictures from Akira-san. PS. I made the comment that we're ready for the Optima now, and he quietly "liked" the comment..... it could be a hint..... or it could mean nothing..... :lol: IMG_5999.PNG image1.JPG image2.JPG image3.JPG image4.JPG image5.JPG image6.JPG image7.JPG
