That's not a squirrel! That's my Bubba!

Ok, I'm just being lazy and putting this off like most...... No, ALL of my other projects! :oops: So here are the correct pictures!

These are some of the bits I have to work with! Narrow front wheels & tires, RCPS turnbuckles and such! Yes I know my arms are not correct or the rear bulk head, or the rear suspension mounts, or the shock towers are too thick. But that's what I have to use, and remember! It is a runner! :wink: So it just needs to look the part! Right?

Yes, I got Paul to get two done for me, but it took two tries to get the colour right! :oops: :lol:

Yeah, that looks good! He sent me a color sample from the first attempt and it was not anywhere near as brilliant in color! Awesome 8)

I need a little advice! I'm a little torn!

I know I said this would be a runner, and for the most part I would love to make it a runner! But.... It's looking so nice, I don't know if I can find the courage to run it! So I ask my RC10talk brothers, what I should do?

A) Build a fast runner with stronger non correct parts that sort of looks like a Cliff Lett truck?

B) Build a Cliff Lett shelf queen with as many correct parts as I can find?

c) Same as (B) but run it gently with lots of chassis tape?

My .$02. Buy a used T4 for a runner. That looks really nice . Too nice.

My 2,

If you already have a 10T runner go with option B.
If you don't have a 10T runner go with option A.
Option C is always possible.
