DS new build ?

Post by Qballll »

I open a new sealed kit, (DS Qualifier) and would love to show you guys pictures of a finished car. But the kit came with the wrong chassis, a black A stamped six gear. Was this poor quality control? :?
I'm think about finishing it with a six gear trans from new parts that I have, or look for a stealth chassis on Ebay.

Q.

That is very strange! For an "a" stamp to survive 10 years before making it into a box? Wow. Don't see many black "A" stamp. Might want to hit up Marlo on that one :mrgreen:

Found something that works with the "A" stamped chassis. Forgot that I had a MIP trans. Here's some pictures, the last two I use the cell phone so the pictures are poor.

I agree with Don, that actually looks awesome the way it is. Body looks great on there too. 8)
