workin on a vintage class racer 6 gear/short arm/small wheel

[JK Racing]

My build up so far...parts were leftovers from my re-re (tranny/front arms) and old cruddy parts I wasnt going to use on anything else.

Originally it was all going to be built onto a TQ10 chassis, but the project changed directions

Houge Steering
Full outdrive bearing mod in the 6 gear
full polished shocks (still thinking about different options here)
Full CF towers

Just tossed together for now, I have a lot of adjustments left to do. Don't like the rear shock placement so far

colors inspired by 1300GT's build

Dirty work area and all:

I like it! I really like the color scheme.

I am going to do the same thing. Just waiting on some misc items to complete my build.

Your SHOCKingly MISSING YOUR NUTS!!! nice build,don

[JK Racing]

I didnt bolt the shocks on last night, I wasnt happy with the positioning. I noticed I didnt dye up any orange servo mounts guess they will be black. I need to get a set of black nose tubes (or even regular silver). Wheels will be black JConcepts Hazards when they come out. Still thinking about body, I want something completely different for this one. Gonna dig through some other threads and get some ideas. Right now the Funco body is sounding good

17.5 system will find its way in here, shooting for a Savox servo as well (orange alloy of course). I have my all out, no holds barred "modern" re-re racer, this will be a throw back, stock class monster.

My JRX is getting jealous

Just use some goood servo tape to stick down that servo! Who needs mounts!

That or Shoe Goo.. the vintage way to go(o)

Is that tangerine I spy? Looks good!

[JK Racing]

Yep, Tangerine. Got a little darker than I wanted (on the older parts especially).

Hmmm...Shoe Goo mixed with a little CA for extra effort maybe? The chassis has "pre-positioned" zip tie holes for servo mounting as well.

Looking good!

Nice..

[clm]

Shouldn't need any ca with the goo.... heck you will have to forcibly pry it off as it is when you go to remove it!
