Very cool project. I love the wheels and the overall low stance. But how wide is that front end?

I have this buggy (at my parents' house)...
The front end is definitely double-wide - whenever I get a chance, I will take a pic with a tape measure for reference.

Here's a pic to compare front end width of this Masami tribute buggy
with a basic CE-spec buggy:

I bought this buggy from UltraHIVE - he's the man with the decals.
I bought some other decals from him, they are also very nice.

I don't think he has been on the forum recently???

Yeah, that was Ultrahive. Last visited Apr.25 but haven't seen a whole bunch from him as of lately. Mostly seen him on ebay within the last few months...

No response when I asked him for Masami decals through eBay either. I see he does a ton of GT performer decals, even bought some. Still no response on the Masami decals. Shame, cause I'd buy a few sets.

Return of the Dragon...

Post by UltraHIVE »

Sorry guys, alot has happened since the last post. I moved to Florida, live on my own for most of the year, learned how to cook and meditate, kinda sorta. I get alot of emails, like really alot from BMX sticker requests, and I might have gained a phobia to responding. I'm cool in person but since typed words don't exactly translate properly, it sometimes starts a whirlwind of problems. I'm not "high and mighty" as I've been accused of, more like very humbled by reality and pain. (End BS here)

So, I sold the tribute buggy to dldiaz, thanks dude for buying it. Yes it was alot wider because of the RC10T arms, but to me they resembled the actual custom arms Masami had made up; at the least the rears do. Cant wait for Bigjeepz / Seabass to finish machining parts, and hope he will be offering conversion kits to the public. I intend to offer decal kits very soon, as I'm almost finished with the first Masami / Viper replica body, waiting on a wing to arrive. Once I get that painted and decaled, I will start a new thread here.

I took a few pics of it along with the last tribute B4 body I did, which will be for sale on Ebay today. I plan to keep doing the Viper replica bodies, selling them, then starting a new one, each time trying to make them better. I started messing with the Edinger box art Protech body as well, almost finished as seen in the pic below. Mine will have some custom changes to the striping decals here and there. Heres a few pics, enjoy!
