Ok here are some pics! Not a lot done yet but its a start. The hardest thing i think im going to have trouble finding is the RCPS turnbuckles but maybe i will get lucky.

I've wanted to build this for a while now... I've never found a set of those RCPS turnbuckles, hope you have better luck! Looking forward to the results!

Re: Cliff Letts 1990 Roar Nats Winner project
I studied every square inch of this car in that RCCA article when I was a kid. I practically wore out that magazine. Back in the day I was going to convert my original RC10 to Cliff's spec, but had no funds.
Anyway, I've created some high resolution pictures from that issue of RCCA and posted them on Flickr, click on the images to access the high resolution goodness.
