Some pics of my DS.....
Finally got with it and found a rear bulkhead, and new body mounts to finish her off. The chassis was a runner, more like a drifter, and the body is HPI, always had a soft spot for that particular one. Ended up fitting the wheelbase on the DS perfectly. This car also has the touring car wheel/tire conversion on it.
Anyway, tell me what ya think!

Re: Some pics of my DS.....
Actually, I bought the car with all the parts on it. Mostly HPI and, dare I say it, Traxxas parts. Associated has a instruction as to what parts you need on their website. When I find it I will post it.
Re: Some pics of my DS.....
I did this to one of my Street Sports, with Traxxas Parts. But I wish there was some way to use AE Parts of some make or model?? Any ideas, Anyone???

Nice specimen you got there, will it be (again) a runner?
