YAE "Yet Another Edinger"

Was lucky enough to pick up what looks like an early Edinger on Ebay. I'm a little bummed the parts are dyed black, but I am looking forward to tearing this one down and seeing how complete it is. I'll post more pictures of the clean up effort, any thoughts on what type of build I should do?

nice find, looks correct- long servo saver arm cut down, rear cups, etc. I bet under the shock cap are slotted pistons. Just need to locate some fiberglass straps and I would re dye everything to make it pop. Very cool

Rit Dye makes me sad... All the lovely white parts sullied into random 'cool' colors of the day. Good luck on the rebuild :D

Try to do the best with what you have. They can still look ok with Black parts.

I like the black parts. Only problem is w3hen they fade, and you have to redye them.

yeah, clean that baby up and do a fresh dye job, get some new skins and wheels, and she will look super!
