Maybe a little black Sharpie detailing on the side windows to finish it off?

Yep, doing that tonight.

Not me, I've never run it

Thanks for the info guys, cheers

I've had this sitting in a box for a couple years after a mate gave it to me, (I 'm guessing that its not really vintage) so I decided I might strip it down, and give it a good clean, and order any parts that it may need, just curious what version of the XXX-T this is. Here's the pics, any info appr...

So my new wing came in the post today, so I'm calling this finished now, really happy with the result, hope you like it too 8) http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/ww29/mtbkym01/Vintage%20n%20Re%20Release/IMG_2718_zps2d0a6427.jpg http://i702.photobucket.com/albums/ww29/mtbkym01/Vintage%20n%20Re%20Rele...

Excellent info thanks guys, it's good to know a bit of history about the buggy too, seems I got a pretty good example, cheers

I saw that and thought that it looked great too - and very clean. However, if you're going to run it you might want to keep an eye on that chassis brace as there appears to be a small crack by one of the front mounting screws. Yeah saw that too (although after I purchased it :roll: ) it'll look goo...

Thanks for the Info Chris, The buggy really caught my eye when trolling through ebay, in particular it's stance I think. I've downloaded a couple pics from the Ad, I think i'd like to do my own body/colour scheme, but other than that the buggy looks really clean, I plan on fitting some electronics (...

Just picked up a Junior2 buggy(Some of you may have seen it on ebay), will hopefully see it soon (posting from USA to AUS) but the pics look good. (Will post them when it gets here) Looking for advice and info about these buggies, I understand they were "Budget" or "Entry Level" ...

Thanks for the comments guys, really appreciate it

Thanks, that's what I was trying to achieve

I wont bore you with the step by step pics of my build, as it is basically standard apart from replacing the bushings with bearings. Were I did go away from standard is by using a Viper body instead of the Protech. I also have a different rear wing on order which assists with the sleeker Viper body....

Here's a quick question, how would a viper body look on the classic, I'm new to gold pans, so not sure how they may look, any reference pics would be great, cheers

Nothing too exciting for most here, but I just received a photo from my LHS, glad I cancelled my Tower pre-order, as 2 will be enough for me, pick them up Friday
