WOW THAT LOOKS GREAT.WHAT ARE THOSE BRACES YOU ARE USING?WAS CONTEMPLATING DOING THIS WITH A GRAPHITE CHASSIS I HAVE LYING AROUND(MAYBE GOING MID MOTOR)BUT COULDNT FIGURE THE BEST WAY TO ATTACH THE NOSE TUBES TO THE CHASSIS.

They look like the chassis tube mounts off of the flat plate(non tub) versions of the RC-10GT:

I like seeing the old but new carbon chassis ones. cant wait to see what the body is going to look like after seeing the job you did with the car.

You are correct they are the mounts i used, and then i pieced together (until i make new ones) some cut down standard front tubes. the two pieces are held together with some 4-40 all thread rod.

Nice chassis and I like the fact that it is allittle different than all the others. I want to build a retro car and try and make it a bit different but it's getting harder and harder to do. Nice job and more pics hopfully with the body on it.

The graphite sheet came from McMaster Carr. it was cut from a 12"x12"x.125" sheet and cost about $85. no too cheep but you can get 2 chassis and some shock towers out of 1 sheet. I do plan on re-making the front shock tower at some point.
