Over the past few months I have indeed stiped this car down more times than I can remember-LOL. All that time Alex has been keeping at me to give this car the attention it deserves and I feel it has finaly paid off. Its funny how I had my mind set on one problem but missed the culprit all along-DOH!
The car runs brilliantly now with not a hint of slip anywhere and moves quite well i will add. Im stoked to finaly get this car sorted and ready for the race track. Bring on Ryde/Sydney 28th of June!
Thanks Tony. The shaft you sent me for the Boost goes right in there and works like a charm . I simply market the areas that required a flat filed into them and away I went. I am realy blessed to have had a hand ful of people help me with ideas that have definately gone a long way into helping me get this old classic sorted.
Im sure the 'SPORTSMAN' class wont know what hit it.
Just finished rebuilding my Mustang for the upcoming vintage race meeting this weekend here in Australia at the Ryde club.
The body is a "Scalpel" shell. An aftermarket shell designed specifically for the Mini Mustang. This shell was new - however badly scuffed and damaged from storage and poor handling before I discovered it at the bottom of a box! After allot of prepping and cleaning the lexan before I applied the paint helped a bit, however there are some scars and dents that I could not remove - they are hard to noticve from more than a foot away - so it is perfect for a runner! I think the "öld school" color scheme worked out ok too.
Hope you like my "ressurection".
Cheers

That looks like a hard body to find a good paintscheme for, but you definitely pulled it off.
Who produced this body?
Hi mate,
Pretty sure this shell was produced by Frewer? You are really testing my memory though...MAY be Parma - but pretty sure it was Frewer.
Thanks Rob - I appreciate your comments - especially as your standards are as high as they are. Your cars are always a credit to you.
Cheers

Do you have those pictures on another site already? Ifso: copy the address and use the Img button to put the tags around the address
(if you use the upload tool: check for messages around the page: usually it tells you somewhere why it failed uploading.
The usual mesage is 'too large' but it's easy to overlook)
I wish James didnt already start selling off his PB stuff. We both agreed that because he just got so much PB stuff recently we figured throwing the term 'MR PB' around wasn't too outlandish. Nice to see some more Maxima's up here too. Well done.
