where you at in this world Wolvesbaine?

around me I can pick aluminum angle up at any kind of building center or hardware store like Menards/HomeDepot/Lowes, Farm&Fleet, Ace hardware, etc. Also, lots of places online...

Not nearly as cheap as the aluminum but there are places that sell angles in carbon fiber also.

I see. Thanks. I'm in Los Angeles. I'll look for some aluminum angles and have someone cut it down to the appropriate size for me.

CF would be cool as well.

I'm sure you should be able to find something out in LA along those lines. If not drop a pm to me

Thanks, Todd. I'll stop by home depot and look for som aluminum.

Here is an updated pic.

A pic of the original body that I painted for my younger brother way back when. Car is pretty clean now with the exception of the glue on the chassis from the old spine.

[Woulves Baine]

So I bought a chassis that's scratched up but has the original spine on it. Can I remove the original spine, assuming it's glued with old CA, using acetone or something else?

[Mr. ED]

pour some acethone in a plastic bag, put the chasiis in and lock it airtight. should fal right off after a day, maybe even less.

[Woulves Baine]

Excellent.

Thanks, Mr. Ed.

Hey folks.

Got kind of busy. I found a 870 C with a spine and took the spine and added it to my chassis, which is in substantially better condition then the donor chassis. I need a couple camber links and a couple small screws and the base chassis is complete. The body is something I or my brother originally painted with the purchase of the kit from the hobby shop my brother worked at.

I may display as is or add some vintage electronics or batteries, etc. Let me know your thoughts. A couple small things that I cannot decide whether they bother me - mismatching front and rear wheel screws (black and silver), mismatching shock ball attachment hardware.

How do I attach a wing?

Also, does anyone know how to embed images from Google Plus?

And another few pics completed and the build.
