Seeing how much I enjoy other people's piccies, thought I'd share a few of my Cougar 2 family. One family member is missing (Cougar2 Sport) due to being in pieces with no time to put it back together Also missing are two Topcats, and 2 Cougar 1's as these are awaiting restoration & painted shells.

Top to bottom: Almost mint Cougar 2 Works, runner Cougar 2 Works, 100% new built Cougar 2 Works, 100% new built Cougar 2 Team, and finally my original Cougar 2 Team from my youth, complete with Kyosho Hi-Rider Corvette Lexan "pop up" headlight which I used as a scoop to try and cool my pathetic Futaba MC112B ESC!!



Works chassis



With a few elderly relations - new built Topcat and restored Cougar 1



Got to love the C2, one of my favourite shape shells. I never did very well racing them, but think a lot of that was due to using a really soft servo saver (I couldn't afford to break the plastic gears in any more servos). This caused the steering to "straighten up" at speed, so my Cougar 2 understeered everywhere

Niiiiiiiiice..Good lookn KITTIES there

Loving your work Ian, That pink shell looks famlier (see my sig picture!!!)

That's an impressive collection of complete Cougars mate.... makes me more than a bit jealous, especially when I look at my pile of junkers.....

I agree on the Cougar2 body, it does have a very nice shape.... it's just a shame you can't buy just the nose piece though, as I have about 15 C2 body sections, but NO noses!!!

Keep up the good work!

Ian - that is one seriously nice collection. Love the fact that you have restored your original racer too

Agree that the shape of the C2 is very desirable!

G'day Ian, great cars mate. It's no secret that the Cougar2 is my favourite 2WD buggy and yours look ace! Well done.

Looking good , all these cougars together.

Here is a part off my mint 2WD family
