Is that printed bulkhead caps?

No just painted to match the body

Finally got around to finishing this one, Quite early model (mostly the shocks differ from later models) Has graphite shock towers and wide front end kit otherwise all standard with repop body.

Found this pic with rc12 on it with the yokomo name also?

The car also has a Yokomo motor in it.

I think the problem with the front end might be that the car uses the original steering rack not the xls one that is about 5mm or so wider on each side?

That's what I wanted to hear

Thank you

Hi there
Just wondering if anyone has tried dying black the yellow/green or blue nylon bumpers that fit the losi xx?

Hi there

I remember them being great 20 odd years ago as they were the best around but probably very ordinary by todays standards but if your just doing some mild vintage running you might get away with it but if you can find the metal gear set it would be much more reliable.

Thanks for the kind words, I find it hard to believe this buggy is over 30 years old (I feel old) but I also find it very interesting to follow the development of these early Schumacher cars from this first one up to the Bosscat they were all a bit of pain to work on compared to the new stuff but ca...

Finally have finished what I bought about 8 years ago :D This is an original swb cat that was converted to an xl but the owner kept the original chassis plates and middle belt also has the original grey bumper (not pictured) in one piece :shock: Anyway here it is as original as I remember them to be...

Why would Tower stock this?

A 30 minute video on there facebook page just click on Cliff.

After seeing a better close up of the real thing I thought I could get it closer to the way JD would of built it, so not a replica of the 93 worlds car as pictured but just more in line with the way he did things

Nice job love the vintage racers

Thank you all for the kind words glad you like it
