Night 2 done... just installed the rear arms and hubs. Will sort out the rear hub bearings and start disassembly of the donor trans tonight, so progress may get a little slow for a while....

There’s 2 options available through Schumacher for the vari shocks https://www.racing-cars.com/spares/nitro-on-road/r12/shock-mouldings-vari-click-piston-pr-u1310 https://www.racing-cars.com/spares/nitro-on-road/menace-gtr/one-piece-shock-pistons-4-sets-of-4-u2143 Both are standard piston replacemen...

Maybe they are the same! I checked the Cougar 2000 manual. It also lists U1511Y "driveshafts, Co-Ax U/J - C2000 (pr)". :D Looks like they are the same but there is a outdrive extender listed, must be to allow for the wider arms. Also the original driveshafts are a slider setup so would ta...

Almost there, looking really good. Nice to see you had and have installed the stock spring adjustment collars 8) Thanks! I can't believe those collars were still in my kit this whole time. Wish I had another (4) of those collars for my GT, they look much better than the slip on kind, but for racing...

I like how he covered up the actual photo of cliff letts winning car with a photo of his car

With my hearing, I could probably do just as well with something from Walmart :lol: but I like having old stuff that still works. Carver components, nice! Love the vintage ...

Pre cut bodies. Couldn't agree more. PITA cutting thin bodies every single time. The only part of the build to royally screw up. Why do the majority of manufacturers require us to STILL cut bodies and wings? Who is making these decisions lol? Do they think we ENJOY cutting wheel wells with sharp ob...

Someone found a new favorite spot to hang out in the yard since my kids figured out if the put the deck chairs next to it she would climb up there with them. Now every time she goes out in the yard she spends some time running in circles and doing mini hops

Sad day yesterday.... we had to say goodbye to our gorgeous Louie. Only 7 years old, but ravaged by Lymphoma. Still, he put on a brave face right to the end...
Fair thee well, Mr. Munchkin... our lives were better for having you in them. We'll see you again, one day.

Thanks man. Ya for me, the simple version is….today’s style of police work just isn’t what I signed up for. I think it would be like telling a plumber to stop sweating pipes with a torch and start using a BIC lighter instead. And then telling him that’s how he has to sweat pipes from here on out if...
