Bosscat Works

Post by CAT3K »

When i first got this Bosscat it was in a very sorry state. Delaminated chassis being the worst part, along with many other minor annoyances.

It's taken ages to find the parts to repair it, but with the exception of the chassis it's now complete. I've just got to get it dirty now :D

I like the paintjob, not perfect as with all my attempts, but still nice to look at while it's still clean.

That looks great! Nice job, and a great color. Before anyone else asks, can we see it naked?

Nice paint job Paul. I have never seen the r/c car decal that you have on the wing.

Great to see another Bosscat Works up here. I have a new built and a great runner. They really are almost Bullet Proof! Job well done!

The buggy decal came from my Cougar SV decal sheet.

Nice job. One thing I can appreciate with these cars is the simplicity of the design. Nice and tight and clean chassis, less is definitely more.

I know what you mean, compared to my modern CAT the Bosscats and previous generations are much simpler.

Look at the newer CAT next to it, belts and pulleys everywhere and a very tight chassis. There's hardly any extra room anywhere and it makes electronics install tough, although it drives like a dream :D

Yeah, he asked if he could use the picture :)

I'm hoping he's going to start making Cougar mk1 shells soon too.. I used up my last one recently and could do with another.
