JRX2 Resurrection
This car started out in the late 80s as a standard original JRX2.....me and my brother raced against it at our local tracks quite often back in the 80s....finally acquired it from the original owner. Going to do a full restoration back to original (close anyway) with 5 links etc.

Dirtier than the pub bar maid 
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.
A problem shared is a problem halved but an advantage shared is no advantage at all.

Re: JRX2 Resurrection
Its got a Jrx-T/Pro chassis and front shock tower, and a nifty idea for the front hexes. I'm interested to see what you do with it

Re: JRX2 Resurrection
The chassis has been reshaped to look like a jrx2 chassis, the hole is filled...its been refinished and drying right now...i will get a pic of it tommorrow. The front axles, c-hubs, steering arms have been put back to stock JRX2 parts i had NIB. The New body fits the chassis resl nice. i wish i could find some jrx2 wing buttons
