Stoked! I just found and purchased the last part I need to finish the chassis - a new in package correct B2 carbon top plate, no sway bar holes. Man, I hope it's packed well to ship...I might have to cry if it's damaged in transit...

Did you get your no hole carbon top plate?

Sure did! It's installed and looking sweet. I originally planned to stop the build without putting in any electronics, but I've found some nice vintage correct pieces, and I guess I'm going for the full deal. I think all I need to get is a proper receiver, and paint a body, and I'm good to go. There a few minor decisions to make, like whether or not to poke a hole in the body for the antenna. I don't ever intend to run it, so I'm thinking I might not want to drill unnecessary holes. Getting close to done!

Originally I bought a B2 Sport repro, back when I was planning just to make it a decent runner. When I decided to go all out shelfer on it, I bought a 6142 B3 body. It's about as close as I expect to find anytime soon. If I ever come across a correct B2 Racer body for an acceptable price, I'll grab it.

I was lucky and got a fresh pulled Andy's B2 body for mine. I just really need to get off my rear and build my B2 up.
