Great pics, I can imagine what it would be like to run it. A ton of fun...
Keep it, clean it up. Good stuff you got going on there!
If you list it, let me know. I would hope to be the first in line. Much appreciated here!

Rich, thansk for the extra info. Was the RW just a SW with a different body and shocks, or were there some other suspension mods?
Anyways, it's cool
One of the best-suited rally cars, with fully enclosed transmission!

I'd have to look at mine but I think it was just the longer shocks. Body I believe came from Parma for the production vehicles and for the life of me I can't recall where we sourced the tires...but i'm going to bet someone here probably knows
Ooh Ooh Ooh. I can add more to this one. There is also different rear hubs, they are lower. A9804

Maybe Rich can explain the reasoning on that one, now that I have jogged his memory.

If I remember correctly the lower hole in the hub was to provide more clearance for the drive axle at full droop of the suspension and avoid hitting the outer bracing of the suspension arm.

That's awesome that you had them sign it.
Guess it is staying in the box then?!
