Yes, please tell us more about this selling of children...I have a couple original one owners taking up what could be my indoor hobby room!
It's time to stand up to the bully. Support the companies that support the industry, not the ones that tear it down. Say no to Traxxas

I´ll have to check up on that - these new trafficing rules are a pain in the butt to figure out

It's easier to make another kid than another 93WCS.

Small Update
Thanks to Peakey I got an original rear camber plate ZD 30 for the old girl so apart from the steering parts, the chassis and hubs she is pretty much all original Yokomo parts.
ZD 30
Original Yokomo part has the countersunk holes as opposed to the one I had made at Fibrelyte
Fitted
I also tweaked the original 870c anti roll bar so it cleared the rear tower
While she was out of the attic I thought I'd complete a couple of jobs on her. The wing mounts I have which I want to keep on as I like them had imperial threads. I had a blue aluminum screws attaching them on to the shock tower which wasn't really in keeping with the build. So I re-tapped them to take a M3 screw this allowed me to use a titanium screw for a more original look.
Re-tapping
Done and fitted with titanium M3 screw
I had an original CML protec II lying around so I decided to mount it on the old girl, which I think looks quite good and certainly makes a change from all the other WCS out there. I just need to get it painted up now. Hopefully that's not going to take me another two years......
