RC12LW Cliff Lett - Grand Rapids 1992

[phoenix]

A fellow vintage collector from Spain wanted to part with the original body from Cliff Lett's RC12LW from the 1992 Worlds in Grand Rapids. Obviously i could not resist and had to provide it a new and caring home

If anyone has historic details, magazine articles and pictures of the original car i would be delighted to see them posted here.

I saw that body on eBay. Nice to see someone from the board got it.

Sorry, I can't answer your questions. Just had to comment on how good the body looks on your chassis.

Just catching this thread for the first time. That is a really good looking body and an awesome find. Love the stuff with a history to it.

Update on pictures of the original car. Many thanks to Pierre for pointing me at them on the Hirosaka Legend Site (full report is in Vol. 47).

This is somewhat irrelevant, but I love the color of midnight blue on the rear of that body...that's the color I was aiming for--but missed--with my Optima Mid car.
