Car looks wonderful as well! 8)
Thanks. I got them from someone. They are photocopies of an original label. Just had to cut them out and glue them on. The cells were new LRP 1700 scrc's.

Thanks. And thanks for helping to get it to this point over the last year and a half. It's nice knowing that it's damn close to the original. 8)

Thanks to Aaron, I got the RCPS sticker needed for the servo (and the body actually). So, the chassis is completely finished. Now I just need time (and ambition) to get the body trimmed and painted.

Got the body trimmed and mounted, and applied the stickers that I had for it. Still have 5-6 to get. I also have to pick up some wire to bend up for the wing. The rere pre-bent wire is too short to put the wing where I need it. So the wing is just taped on for now.

I was texting back and forth with Brad this past Thursday morning. I mentioned that I was planning on taking the replica along for the concourse at the Vonats but that I wish I had the missing stickers to complete it. So he dug deep through his stash and managed to come up with what I was missing and overnighted them to the racetrack so they would be there the following afternoon.

So Friday night at the hotel I put the stickers on. I still have to cut the scoop open, but didn't want to get into that during the race weekend.

Brad's original

And my replica

The car also won "Most Authentic" at the concourse event at the Vonats which was pretty cool. :)
