Yes I do believe they are AE worlds bellcranks.
I know I know my worlds car has the wrong center link, I have the correct turnbuckle. I’m really quick to get needed parts, installing them is another thing

As for a body I’m definitely down with it being an late model…
Any suggestions LTO_Dave ??
Also I’m really on the fence when it comes to wheels and tires.
All the DO car pics I’ve been going over are either smooth foams, cut (grooved) foams or Schumacher mini pin.
I like them all !
I would say any vintage late model body from Custom Works or Premier Designs would look good. The CW Bullet or Rocket wedge would be appropriate for a 2WD car. And smooth or grooved foams would be my choice. Or even silicone caps if you can find or make some. Scr8p might be able to give you an exact tire he used here in PA.

Grooved foams around these parts on dirt.

This would be the early R&D setup with modified Kyosho Optima arms. The aluminum arms were pretty much based off them.
Probably Trains and Lanes dirt on those arms yet too.

Wow that’s very interesting to see how similar their design is, the only area the arms are modified are the inner hinge ?

Spotted this fs on the bay and figured it may work out for this chassis. Looks to be in decent shape, hopefully just needs a good cleaning. Fingers crossed I can make the existing body mount holes work as well. It’s on the way.

Really extremely pleased with the body’s condition and paint job. Unfortunately I’ll have to blast some new holes in it to mount it up, wheelbase is on point so that’s a plus. So how do we feel about the T&A alloys on it ??

Do we all agree that this is the body ? Found in the 93’ Dahm’s catalog.

That's a Dahm good possibility.

NICE
The first clue for me was the billboard size decal
