Just thought I'd share pictures of one of my cars. I'm working on the wing and waiting for decent weather to paint this buggy that I reassembled over the last few weeks. I'll be hunting for some nicer rear tires soon as well.
You know, I probably will make it a shelfer since I have so many other cars i can run. I know the chassis is a bit scratched up but it adds character! Overall it's not a bad car.

Love the new Avatar by the way. Is that car on here somewhere? Was I sleeping? Although your old avatar was cool too. It reminded me of Knight Rider or Christine. It looked like the car had just spun out and was about to come back and get me.

That's funny! I was turning into a car show at a drive in and one of the guys there was snapping pictures of the cars he like as they drove in. Turns out he was a member of a forum that I am and he ended up posting the pic online. We've been good friends since then, even did some car swapping. The avatar car is on here, check my thread called "My Pro-X Project in the Kyosho forum. Oh, and thanks for the compliments!

Hah! I just told on myself! I love Kyosho and Yokomo stuff, but I never go in there. I figure I expose enough of my ignorance in the other threads. I'll have to check it out.

Finally I got these restore projects started. I have been collecting parts since may this year and I think I have all that's needed. As my other builds, these two cars will be built by using mostly second hand parts (in great condition).

Wow! Super nice sir! :shock:
Thanks Lars! These projects almost went a bit too fast after I finally got all the stuff needed.
They look fantastic buddy! I always think Kyosho had an off day when they designed the stickers for the Custom Special,...
I am not a tourer fan but I am sure others would agree this yokomo is a collectors must even if you are a die hard collector of off road. I picked this up ages ago so for a change I think it'll need some attention....

Some serious bling for a B4 or what? I must admit that I doubt I am going to even take these out of the bubblewrap covers, as I am not going to use them but still how many are out there?

Well you dont have to run them, for a shelf queen these will be perfect, however the weight is not as heavy as they look, ok still heavy compared to the standard wheels but look really good on a B4
