Hi,
Those paint jobs are awesome.
Where is the dark car going?

The 'dark' CAT was pulled from auction with offer of a trade. Hopefuly tomorrow i'll be getting my first ever Tamiya 3 speed Bruiser :D

The blue car is part of my vintage racer stable.

Forgive my ignorance, but are they Yokomo wheels on the blue one?

For sure.
I reckon some those bashing tyres I have will fit straight on to that racer of yours.
It will be good to finally use them. :)

I was watching that car on the bay hoping it would be mine. I was wondering why it ended, and now i know. I hope you like your new ride.

Im sorry FACEMAN. I rarely pull auctions but with 10 different bidders going 5 odd dollars a throw with 3 days out it was obvious people didnt realy want to bid their true intention. When a Tamiya Bruiser was thrown into the mix from a member of this forum and a fellow Queenslander I was happy to remove the car from auction as trade.

I don't blame you a bit. I would have done it too! You need to post some pics of the bruiser when you get it.

Nice couple Jason, sorry they broke up.

Did you do the spray job on them? Looks real good. I like the detail of combining white decals with the white wheels

Thankyou for the nice comments guys. Yes Erik I painted both of these cars only recently. I was hoping for a vintage kind of feel.

I caught up with Doug ( dangermouse ) today and when you have 4 Schumacher C.A.T's in the one place at the one time it makes sense to take a picture of the occassion. LOL!
It was good to meet a fellow RC10TALK member and such an old CAT enthusiast. Im looking forward to having you join the rest of us nutters for a vintage run out at Boondal soon. Cheers-Jason.
