Ayk Maviper/Viperick project hijinx

[Ayk Viper]

It's a slow news day in here so I subject you to, I mean present, this farce. I wouldn't do this to my first or sixth Viper but this set of parts needed some direction as I wasn't going to buy the parts necessary to complete it as a genuine new built...I love the boxart of the Maverick but I'm not that into the Radiant et al chassis. My proposed solution is a love child, Viper chassis, genuine Maverick body and Turbo Burns oversized shocks. WIP/work in progress it certainly is but I thought it might provide some amusement. Completion expected somewhere around 2032. I'm not precious so criticize away, starting from my MS Paint skill onwards, but be sure to separate my lack of skill from the described end goal

The Viper chassis is a amazing piece to look at even with out a body!

very nice kristjan. will you paint the body? are those new gearboxes in this build???

[Ayk Viper]

I'm not sure I can squeeze painting this into my lifetime at my snail pace hence the 2032 estimaed time of completion. Congratulations to any doers out there.

The rear gearbox is from the current ebay bottemless pit of gearboxes yes (by my count there have been/are 30+ so far available !)...the front is old new. Whoever calculated spares for the Viper seemed to get that allocation a little bit skewed.
