My gold tub races restoration.

Post by m_vice »

The chassis is an original gold tub “A” stamped from the first generation. I remember I upgrades everything everitime something new came out like the front arms, shocks, etc. I bought the stealth tranny when it came our and adapted it. I basically upgrade everything except for the chassis. At the moment the only original parts are the full chassis, the insides of the tranny and tranny brace, the rims and wheels, and the technacraft turnbuckles and pins.
Hope you like it. :D

I will probable post the finish project tonight or tomorrow.

Awesome! If you run this car, please keep the bottom of the tub clean with some protective film!! It is just so mint :D

Loving the gold caps too.. very Masami Hirosaka.
