Here is a 10L chassis that I have cleaned up. I could not get myself to throw the chassis plate away. Right now just trying to replace the main steel screws with aluminum plain versions. Still a few items needed. The See's are just for show for now (courtesy of Brandon G) and need fresh donuts. Its built up as a project to get my niece into Pan cars.

I will post more as it goes.

Nice I love the wheels, I have the gold ones I have never seen the silver ones. looks great

Thanks, I think the silvers just look so good with the fiberglas cars. I had to beg Brandon for these.

Once tower gets these (ASC6910) back in stock, or ebay, or...etc.

You can strip the anodizing with easy-off or purple power and you will have a complete set of natural colored aluminum hardware. (Without having to search too hard).

Looking good. Takes me back to racing on carpet in local school gymnasium.

Thanks all once more. Never thought to strip the blue aluminum hardware, thanks I will give it a try.

So what body is that in the back ground? lets see it on the car. I have a MCAllister Toyota on mine in the other thread with the gold BBS See's. I like the straight axle to, I ran one on mine years ago.

Same the Toyota, yet I have decided against it, and may run the Nissan instead;)

Looks sweet man. Never seen a chrome plated RX before.

Its the Novak Mercury, they came like that with a special chrome "Shielding" towards interference. Thanks

Quick update: Swapped the front end to a Proline Titanium setup - a pain, more on that later. The Magnesium hubs are courtesy of Tulsa upgraded from stock. Installed a NIP Associated optional motor Mount. Installed Buds ceramic diff rings (for show-not to run). Found some TRC Wheels, that I will clean up some more and install new foams on the rears. Got a Wide bumper from the bay. And finally found a use for my old Paris Magnesium Body mounts # 7260 (4mm metric)

Proline Titanium Front End - #4519 - You have to re-adjust ("bend") the arms to get rid of any misalignment. They did not match Left to Right. WIth a little bit of work in my woodworking vise it worked out. I still need to add one more set of screws and nuts to the middle of the arms.

I am busy with work so its taking some time.

And here is a side project that received the inside line front end, and sees wheels.

here it is, with a Associated TOJ body (thanks bearrickster), the Sees (thanks Brandon) are for display only. Its pretty much ready to rock now.

No problem it looks great.

Thanks, I wanted to keep it clean looking with a bit of vintage feel. Worked out great.
