I might go with new cells and go 4 inside 2 outside

Will be making a battery change...will take awhile...gonna wrap my own new cells in yellow and try the MCI Sanyo 1700 mah decals...and go cells 4 x 2...want the car to perform! Problem is if it works out and looks authentic I have alot of older builds I would need to do this too as well!...stay tuned!

Calling it done...paint/body by "The Diamond One"

Excellent work as always! It was mentioned earlier that the car originally had belts but was converted to chains. What was the reasoning behind the change? I guy messaged me on a Facebook group...he says the machinist that made the chain conversion was in RCCA with his conversions back in the day.....

"The Diamond 💎 One" got the body cut, fitted and painted and the wheels painted...waiting for the "Days of Thunder" Superflo decals to arrive next week...plus I am redoing the battery situation...getting decals from MCI and gonna purchase new NIMH cells (6 cell) and wrap them to ...

Got it done, just waiting on "The Diamond One" to do the body....and I haven't done the wing tube yet

David nentioned it...it will prolly happen

Body ended up fitting really nice, had to widen the rear to match up to the front...did it with Kyosho Scorpion axles and modifying the hub carriers for different bearing size...hopefully decals next week

At this point Facebook is your only real option...just sayin

Really nice build...glad u are finally liking Kyoshos!
