Post by scr8p »

here's where it's at so far. i still need to finish the trans, and i think the rear shocks could use a couple more limiters. but, it's turning out alright.

That's how I think that chassis should be used. 8) Maybe add some silver alloy screws to the shock clamps and transmission.

Looks great, I hope mine looks as good.

i was kinda hoping to build it like the "real" worlds car, with a white rear bulkhead, stealth case, suspension pieces, etc, but i'm missing a few of the white parts. if i come across the ones i need, i might switch them around.

ya, but i like the multi color look. :)

i don't have any more of the 6805 rear rims in yellow, but i have a pair in black. and i have a pair of the 3 piece fronts in black. so i'll be putting those on once i get some more plain bearings.

Awesome car Jason. And as always, perfect chassis rehab. Btw, where did you find the graphite battery straps?

that's a 12L front end brace that i cut down. i had it on another car, but it matches the color and weave of this chassis really nice.
