New towers just for scr8p... Unless an RPM rear tower falls into my lap, the Associated will do just fine.

Very very tasty

Any special treatment to the RPM plastics to make them shiny white???

Thanks!

Thanks Paul! Just new parts that are still good and white. Hard to say what time will do to them though. Seems I've heard that some of the original RPM white chassis cars and parts turned yellow/green with time?

Ok, Thanks Yes, most of the rpm parts I have have yellowed with time, like AE's nylon... except RPM plastics don't like Peroxyde, they turn pale green...

I keep looking at this car again and again... it really looks the business, just with the right amount of shine, refined and not gaudy. Very nice work!

Had a little time today to try and match up a body to the build. Not exactly what I had planned, but had to use it somewhere! Finally snagged a new RPM trans brace.

Very nice indeed, but hey you need interanl spacers in the rear shocks, holy ride height Batman lol

Man, that looks great! Well done...

No love for the 80's 'hittin' the switches' look?

That is the difference between the 10T towers in older pics vs the RPM front and CE rear towers. Been too lazy to take the shocks apart yet.

Yeah, still love the look of this, but she looks long legged!

Who doesn't like long legs?

Little people -mostly.

Giant midgets?

Probably gonna make the giant midgets mad , but I got around to getting the height issue solved. Found some RPM front steering arms as well.
