Very nice job on the build, can't wait to see the painted body!
The B2 was one of those cars that I missed during my period of inactivity in the hobby so I don't know much about the platform. Your build has inspired me to start building a box art example myself.
Looks like the chassis you went with is the carbon fiber composite (I reckon what we call "hard" version now), but is it the short version or the standard? Doing a ton of research last night it seems there is not a ton of difference between the B2 and the B3 I have at home, mostly suspension geometry, etc.
The only part I was not able to source so far is the rear chassis plate. It looks similar but not identical to the B3's rear chassis plate. Does anyone know if the plates are interchangeable? At a glance it looks like the only difference is the B3 plate is slightly wider at the back, presumably to protect more of the motor.
This 10T was supposed to get a restoration, but inspired by the old/new builds in this thread my project has taken an unexpected turn. This will end up being a runner that I'll take to the track for the occasions when we have a turnout for 2wd....

Greg, use a losi cvd axel and rc10 cvd inner shaft, you can space the outer deeper into the
tranny outdrives, the B4 cvd axel will work as well
My preference is to get the car to legal buggy width and I figure I will need narrower arms to do this....

The arms I got years ago and had sitting in my stock they were used but show absolutely no wear not sure what brand they are they look to be gpm units
i have wanted to do a build like this for a couple years now. thanks to al, jay, and paul for hooking me up with the nip stuff i needed to get it going. so here's the beginning of my t2 buggy, which i'm calling a B1.5. :)
So I'm in the middle of restoring an RC10 B3. It was only lightly run up to this point, but has a mix of parts from other cars. A lot of B2 parts, and shocks from a B4.

Pretty much got this car wrapped up. It's all original team car stuff except the RPM front bumper, rear bumper, gear cover, and the Lunsford turnbuckles. Oh, and I opted for the factory team gold shock shafts. I took it out and ran it a bit, and...
nip custom painted body I got in the mail today. This is an original b2 team body.
