Another car to add to my growing list of projects, god knows when I'll actually start rebuilding these cars, I'm just collecting as many vintage buggys as I can, I need help!!
Anyhoo, here's the latest. A Cat 2000 I got from eBay. All seems pretty straight, with a vintage KO Fet servo included
The CAT 2000 series (EC SE 98) and CAT 3000 share many parts but they have different motor and battery layouts. Is a universal chassis with holes to support the different layouts feasible or is there a significant difference between the layouts?...
