It was an upgrade for the 12L's 4347 standard aluminum motor plate

That makes sense, I probably wont use it then as these are more "stock" builds. It does look nice mounted up though. Hopefully tonight I'll get to put some nylon on the old girl. I can't believe how white the original parts were, some NIP parts are nearly as white as the damper washers and pivots.

More progress, the white didn't come out as white as I had hoped but looks very clean and natural. Wheels and a rear axle and we can call this one done.

I was hoping to finish one before starting another one, but, since I'm still waiting on a few parts to arrive to finish the LS I thought I'd start on the LC since I have all parts except tires.

Here's my parts pile for the LC....

The 12LC is pretty much finished but again have to wait on a few small details to button it up. I ordered the shock mount and also decided to order a new shock instead of using the FT blue one that I have just to keep it 100% stock. I also have the correct dish rims coming for it. Waiting sucks but hopefully it's worth it.

Anyone have a source for front end screws? They are temporarily unavailable from tower.

Also, were there early and late production versions of the 12L and 12LW, running changes before becoming the next model?
