Just winging it...

Looking really good. That motor plate looks to have a slight bend in it when looking from the rear. You should be able to bend it back straight pretty easily. I'll break out the dead blow hammer and persuade it back in line. :mrgreen: Fresh off the mail truck, revision b. I think I like it. 2025033...

The superstars look better than I though... the chrome ones at money- I'm kinda liking the chrome, too. The black super stars look the best. But that's just my opinion, and those are like belly buttons.... Appreciate the comment. I'm not a huge fan of dish wheels on old Losi buggies. I grabbed some...

Rear HPI white stars fresh off the mail truck. Hmmm... 20250326_190958.jpg Some beat chrome prolines for mockup. 20250326_191111.jpg Beat white prolines. These may be what I had on the buggy originally. 20250326_191419.jpg I have another set of wheels coming this weekend that will be considered befo...

I have natural logo fronts, but not rears. Any I find are a bit pricey for this project. I have another wheel set inbound that may work. My color choice back in the day is cramping my style these days.

Turnbuckles finished up.

Wheel mockup. I'm not sold on this combo...

I couldn't get a matching set of grey hard ano shock bodies together, so I'm going with black instead. 20250323_104058.jpg 20250323_185216.jpg Twisters motor installed as a place holder. 20250323_185239.jpg Found a spur gear adapter from my OG car and installed a new Kimbrough (rip) spur gear. 20250...

Spacers in!

Decided to restore a few decals that have some road rash. Luckily, I have some Parma Goodwrench decals in the stash.


Off with the old.

I totally forgot to put the spacers in

I'll have to find them on the bench!

I'm waiting on the .9 bodies to arrive and I need to figure out the turnbuckles, so at a stopping point for now.



Buffed the body a bit to see how it will look.



And thinking about wheels....

My OG JRXT has come back to me. A bit worse for wear, but complete. I'll clean it up and maybe make a runner out if it.

Shock shaft amd hinge pins are here!

I'm 99% sure I have some new out of package .9 fronts on the way to me if you haven't found them soon-

Appreciate the offer, found some last night on the bay. Hopefully the ano color is fairly close to the 1.2s.

Thanks!

Sweet build! Thanks! I'm patting 12 year old me on the back. :mrgreen: Had a few minutes at the bench today. Bulkheads mounted with a new bumper. 20250309_145854.jpg New steering posts. 20250309_150445.jpg I found a correct "wide" steering rack in the parts stash and mounted the battery h...

Man! Your on a roll!! :mrgreen: It's a special time of year before all hell breaks loose with kids' activities! That’s a nice looking chassis! No servo saver cutout, Jrx2 steering and the mini bumper..Looks like a Proformance upgrade with some more upgrades. I agree - someone threw a Proformananana...
