You are not quite finished. I believe there is something amiss with the front tower...

Can I make a guess? Did the tower used to rock from side to side with a single bolt mounting the plate to the bulk head?

I know the bodyshell from the Boost was incorporated when the Dunn brothers ran the saddle chassis plate. Definately used at St Ives back in 89.

For the front shock tower, I don't know if I use the rocker at the World I have no pics from the front of the car / poor angle ..., maybe Mike or Steve or JHarris can confirmed?

The white rear toe in , miss too, but for now I don't want to cut the rear black parts...

I need 2 rear body post , If any body have this, thanks in advance...

Do you need a pic of the front tower mod? Or just not sure if Mike's car had that setup in the 89 Worlds?

My Radiant has it, if you need to see a pic, I can snap some for you.

Yes, Mike's 89 worlds car used the "flipity flop" front shock tower. I missed the white parts mod you mentioned. He used rc10 carriers in the rear if that's what your talking about.

I took a couple shots for you. The tower's drilled in the middle of the two original holes (on the chassis too), then the lower left/right portions were shaved a bit and act as limiter for the side to side sway.

This is interesting... Bimdapogs what universals are you using? Do you have them in the front and rear?

It has Kyosho's in the front (from the Lazer/Mid, I think), and RC10 in the rear. Mine came with the mods when I got it.

No recent ones, unfortunately. I haven't really done much to the car since I got it.
