SWEET rescue!!!!

Those cars always fascinated me; I finally got my hands on one about 10 years or so ago - tried to make a runner out of it but never could get it the way I wanted it to handle. The Dunn boys seemed to have some answers to that car that NO ONE could figure ou! It's among the many that I sold that I wish I had kept!

How 'bout a Mike or Steve Dunn paint job???

Wherever you go; there you are!

Does anyone know if the pro radiant had a cockpit driver? I found a driver recently in my boxes of parts and I can't pin it down to any other car.

Thanks

Will send a pic if needed

Try 'Rusty the Pro Radiant' thread as that has evolved into my full-on racer..... being developed at the moment by one of the top UK racers (Nathan Ralls) who is campaigning with it this summer in the UK vintage Revival event.

I thought I would explain my Mike Dunn question here rather than hijack the Dunn QA thread.

There are a huge number of Boost shelled Pro Radiants on the internet, even stickered with Pro Radiant decals.

InetRC suggests that the Boost shell was...

You are correct. The Pro Radiant body did not work with the saddle pack conversion. Perhaps that explains why the different bodies on the ones pictured. I know we ran a different body, but just can't remember which one. To be honest, I never liked...

Few pics of a Pro Radiant I picked up on the bay, should be here next week.
Talked myself out of buying one a few times, finally succumbed to it.
No idea what it is missing or what it will need, looks pretty complete, I think.
