I've wanted one of these for a long time and finally found one that wasn't in the best condition. But I tore it down to clean the rusty hardware and removed super glue globs that were on and around the edge of the chassis. I added new body posts, Magic spur gear, fiberglass rollover antenna, purple aluminum angled servo mounts, Trinity purple aluminum clevis' and TRC ZR-1 mounted foams. Electronics are next on the list and I have a Protoform Nissan P-35 painted by Andy's that needs drilled.

Very nice.
And that is one thick front sway bar

Is that shock in the front to make the bracing between left an right sides adjustable stiffness? Tuned flex? That is an awesome 12th scale.

Another awesome one! Your collection is what I aspire to have if I wasn't so lazy!

I honestly don't know much about the design aspect of the front suspension. But there are spacers on the kingpins where springs would normally go on a regular Revolver.

...does he owe you any money? A rowdy pack of RC nerds could probably pay him a visit. Naaaa, that would never work. There would probably just be an intense discussion on Reedy vs Le Mans vs Trinity and they'd forget all about collecting your moolah.

So what sort of electronics is this sweet roller getting? Got a loose V.E. speed control sitting around by any chance?

I'm going with a Novak Hammer Pro & Polaris, Trinity Championship mod & either Pushed P-170's or Ex-Tech 1700 SCRC's and an Airtronics 94143 servo.

Zr1’s are so sexy. The magic carpet is has to be my favorite of the the 1/12 trinity cars. The mono front end is just lovely.
I cant believe that chassis is used, great work jeremy.

I finished up this build today by adding an Airtronics 94143 servo, Novak Hammer Pro esc & Polaris receiver, and a Trinity Championship mod motor & Ex-Tech 1700 SCRC cells. I drilled the Protoform Nissan P-35 body and shortened the front body posts slightly. I believe this body was painted by Andy but there's no signature to verify it.

Looks awesome I wish there were still some carpet tracks around me.

From the looks of it that beauty may also turn Right
Nice job
