Thank you! Got a few more things done. With all the rain were supposed to get this weekend this will be a roller for sure by the end of the weekend.

If I can make a recommendation, pass up the rc screwz and use team knk. They are more affordable and come with plenty of extras- and as a bonus they are the right screws unlike other companies

No problem. Don’t tell Mike I talked him up, but he’s a good dude with very fair prices and quick service.

Got some more done today! I will finish up the front end tommorow and possibly get the shocks rebuilt.

Wow, that sure is purdy. Is the ano vintage/factory or did you have it redone? It almost looks like it has satin clear-coat. Also, are the body post the standard RC10 posts that have been turned? Anyway, it's looking really nice.

Yes it is the stock ano and the body mounts are turned to look like some that Cliff Lett had on his 1990 Roar Nats car.
