Wow Chico!.....just wow

Amazing result! I have a LOT of parts waiting to go to the anodizer. A lot of them are pieces I have already stripped, and need polishing. You are absolutely right - the polish job determines the anodize result. I really don't enjoy polishing, so it's been very easy to put off sending my parts to th...

Amazing results! Really impressive. Thanks so much for the great thread and pictures.

I purchased some Novus plastic polish based on some posts here. Results first 597FE994-293F-4CE3-B244-8FAB8ED723D0.jpeg I kept this old shell to practice on. I stripped the paint on the roof with some dot3 and it left pretty strong haze. I purchased the novus plastic polishing system at 2oz. Taped o...

JC Racing will be releasing some soon. Keep an eye out. Otherwise you are stuck with expensive vintage parts or marked up defunct rerelease parts.

Wow

Great build! BITD we had one Kyosho guy at our track who ran an Ultima and Optima then Optima Mid, did pretty well. Was it the Optima Mid that came with the gold shocks and the Turbo had the platinum?

However, the way things are going, I may need to liquidate the collection so that I can buy groceries. :roll: Not to drift off topic but I have always been a big fan of the KZ's Ed...

Front suspension beam looks like it's from a Vicfor Concept One pan car.

I have been hunting parts for this build for the past few years. I recently found these uber rare Five Stars lower arms. Many thanks to John Cook for all his help in finding many of these pieces. The gold Cross drives (second pair not shown) are also a big find. Once I finally get some parts anodize...

1/10 pan car. unknown chassis.7.JPG I found an old thread (10 years old) on a car very much like one I recently got. https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=28626 Also found the same car on RCTECH, same person posting the same car. There was really no consensus on the manufacturer. Unknown chassis...
