Awesome! I've also been looking for a long time, only to find exploded views. Love the tuning guide!

Very nice! And it even has some decent carbon fiber. The late-80's early 90's early HPI had crappy looking carbon fiber much like the early RC10L parts. The epoxy wasn't full/smooth so always has lots of divets and inconsistencies but those particular parts look excellent. Would love to have that e...

Scr8p when you get a second can you see if my donations went through, thanks.

Does anyone know if this is limited kit or will they have multiple shipments?

Amazing job on axle general!! Car looks like its ready for racing.
I have to post my car up, i found a new chassis and new rear suspension setup. The only thing im missing is axle tube which im sure ill never find!

What's the 3 bolt rear axle you're using?

The axle is just a typical rc12l3 axle, its not era correct as the axle came out after this model but i want to use the yokomo wheels bad.

Do you do anything to protect the underside when running outside? The chassis gets scuffed up pretty easily with such low ground clear. Theres no foam on wheels, thats why it looks do low but even with foams im only sitting 1/4” higher. This us just for shelf BUT if i did run it I would definitely ...

Was this purely for weight and space saving, or manufacturing difficulties?

I believe weight saving and a little of prototype testing.
Masami always shrink wrapped in his early days.

I can't ID the wing mounts on Ruffy's car but the two types that GeneralZod posted were both from Bolink. Ruffy's body looks like the same as the bodies Barry Baker and Ralph Burch had on their cars in this pic...which according to the race results were Associated Nissan bodies. assonssn.jpg Thank ...

Do you know what mounts those are in your pic?

Also just a heads up, mci decals 1/10 scale were a bit snaller then original so i had to buy 1/9th scale decals and they were much closer to original size.

Those do look close. I have no clue what body it is. Im hoping someone can see from pic.

Ok guys LTO was able to post a screenshot i sent him. Its a little fuzzy but this is ruffys actual car I replicated. The body has big vents on top of front fender. I hope this helps figuring out the body. The mounts are hard to see but they look like black ano and are like a cylinder wing mount with...
