Wish I could take the credit for this one but this is Paul's brain-child.I have added the carbon rear tower and trans brace, electrics, decals and blue screws. (need more btw).The body is gonna be tough. Got a viper here trimmed and ready to paint.

I think a Marlboro paint scheme would look cool. There are probably a lot better examples out there, but I did a very quick search. Red and white with black accents. Not sure if decals are readily available, but I wouldn't think they'd be too hard to track down.

On a side note: I quit smoking 13 years ago and have been running miles a day for years and I could still go for a Marlboro right now!!!

One of my favorite by far. Have always been a huge fan of the Marlboro scheme. I considered it untill I went with the ezrun and blue screws.

That's a beautiful build,very different from anything I've seen before.Looking forward to your progress.Is that a vintage RPM gear cover?

Thanks. The cover is for a T4 or B4. Fine for the shelf but only accepts one screw.

I had no idea this thread was about my wife in 2010.

Not sure how I feel about these shocks. Springs have to change but I may have to find something else.

I like the looks of these,

Is there any place other then ebay to get blue shocks for this thing?The ones mounted and the ones in the link are all for B4's.

nice 10 you have there, one thing you should look after is the heat dissipation from motor to heatsink, painted sink conducts poor transfer thus making motor temp high.

cheers!!!
