Another step closer...

I'm a sucker for these damn Academy buggies.

XX CR style rear hubs underway. Down to a chassis, steering and steering cap. I haven't been working on it the past couple weeks as (like many of us here) I have 40 other projects ongoing.

Looks more like the 39 Chevy from Parma.

I'm in a mood for off the beaten path metal...

Nothing too exciting - just some wheels I slapped together in Tinkercad (I did not draw the centers, borrowed from another design) and sent out for professional printing....

If I can find it - I have a B&R 550 can motor. The comm was torn up, so I pulled the fan off a Titan armature, dropped it in there and put it in my slash. It was a very fun motor at that point adjustable timing and bearings!

I don't have pictures of all of them, but here are some. I've been really bad about not finishing cars/trucks over the past couple years. Some are runners, some are incomplete, some are realized projects that took decades for me to even begin creating :) Custom Anodized 22-4 converted to a 4wd truck

JRX2 early car (20 degree kick up), 3d printed Lunsford rear arm, JC Racing 2.2 wheels, yes I still race it

Random ones I've built, ran, sold off

More of that same category (didn't realize I've kept so many pictures).

Last race day (been a while) - XX buggy didnt do to well...

Semi-Losi full custom X5 sq - it now has a matching paint job with my other cars.

Custom anodized NXT

Early Gen 1 XX4, cleaned up the best I can.
