Here is my all New build. I have been collecting parts for a long time to build this car Every part on it is NOS. It has a complete NOS Retro fit trans with double sided slipper Mip lightweight out drives RPM ballcups custom battery pad. to match the rodends and spur. New Jammin Jay clear undertray. New XX 8008 Body and Wing. Lunsford Tit. Hinge pins. SS screws. its not Complete but almost even New Tires and Wheels just need front Tires and some New chassis screws New RPM Slipper cover

Very interesting. Keeping with just chassis, or do you plan to put running gear in?

I have one that I already Run so I dont plan on running this one its just as you took it out of the box New. If I found another new chassis I might. but its only New once why run both? I am going to paint it box stock Yellow and blue. and put it on the shelf or sell It to fund other projects.

Thanks to tecnica2001 I found the rest of the New parts needed to finish this car with all new stock parts. So I pulled it all back apart and rebuilt it all 100% stock New tierods and turnbuckles and I had a all new trans so the retrofit is gone and the stock six gear is in its rightful place. I tryed some red Pro wheels but I like the yellow ones better I will post new pictures with them back were they belong soon. it now resides on my shelf with its brothers all new built Pro and Junior 2 and my Racer Pro se

Its done all but paint! and I need a new set of staggared rib front tires and a stock gear cover. I am going to paint it box art Flo Yellow and Blue

nice looking car. I take it you don't Need that NIP black shock anymore
I havn't had the patience to try a boxart job on any of mine, paint is one of those things I keep putting off for some reason.

Damn man, you may love this addiction more than me!?! Beautiful new-build. I only hope I can make mine that nice. I say box art all the way. I have never seen a box art Pro SE.

Nice job.

Yes I still have a single shock I will get it worked out this weekend.

thanks I have at least one each up to the XX and JrxT, Junior T, LX-T, and XXT

The painting is kind of easy when you have it all thought out. Are you using an airbrush hopefully?

That's why I cut, mount, and leave them clear. I'd hate to ruin a $60-$100 body that I might not be able to replace.

I've even chickened out of cutting this one so far, and it's already painted for me:

Yes I have airbrushes but I prefer piss cans less mess. I painted the Jrxt with piss cans all but the yellow turned out great.
