xxtcr restoration rebuild

[Coelacanth]

Nice buildup, but it's a cacophony of colors...I prefer a more subdued, coherent color scheme.

hence the name NEON FUNK

Um..I realized that. Just commenting. I'm opinionated, not simple.

so here it its the last piece I've been searching for... the holy grail...i paid a hefty chunk of change for it even though its used.. they don't come up very often.. so i bought it...
cant wait to get back to cali to put all these super rad parts on!!

Holy prettiness! Is that a word? I was just getting ready to redo my Kinwald buggy after some good runs and a needed freshening.

What is the history of this part? Is it made by Trinity? Did they make one for buggy too?

Yeah I believe it is a Trinity part... and the buggy bulkhead is the same one used for the truck, or visa-versa.

Good find... strangely this was quite a popular upgrade back in the day IIRC... which is odd considering the original plastic part wasn't prone to failure.... but then we are all rather taken with a bit of anodised 'bling'..... which I guess what this truck build is all about - I love it, because it has all those parts that I would have longed-for, peering up at the peg-board in my local model shop. Most of these parts wouldn't have offered much more than maybe a bit more durability - the most important advantage is the looks!
