I thought about doing that with mine too. But ended up going the replica route. I am however building a tub car as if I were a B-team AE member at the 91 Worlds. They'll look good sitting on the shelf together one day.

Sweet!

I'm working on my own build of the Worlds car using a Worlds rere kit. It will get run at one of the Vonats when it's done.

I think the RPM cover was designed to clear the VTS clutch setup.

I myself, for this car, would look to grab one of the rere covers from the Classic (if they're still available). Or an aftermarket one from OldRC.

I put this team car together for the wife to use. Well, we haven't been able to get to the track for her to even use it. https://i.postimg.cc/bY2N1dYt/IMG-20180929-150659921.jpg Since I got this car, I had thought about turning this into a Masami replica. https://i.postimg.cc/BnzcJHRG/FB_IMG_1498834...

I think if we would have had more time to mess around with it things would have been done differently. The plan to do this came fairly close to the race and I just hoped that it was going to finished for it. It was supposed to be just a GT restoration. Jason had sent me 4 GT's to restore.

The Worlds kit from avid has all the correct bearings you need. There will be 4 extra 3/16 x 3/8 bearing left over.

The steering bellcrank on the worlds car uses (4) 1/4 x 3/8 flanged bearings. You will have to use them in your rear hub carriers instead of (4) 3/16 x 3/8 bearings.

Those early check point motors used slot car sized brushes and springs.

I never had them, but I would assume you could just use the slot car shunt wire too. Solder the one end to the hood and tuck the other between the spring and brush.

No huge update on this. But I did find some modern tires that mimic the look of the yoke tires that Mark ran. Proline Slide Jobs.

For the back you can use.... these hexes: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Factory-Works-Vintage-12mm-Kyosho-Wheel-Adapters-For-1-4-RC10-Axles/303028873957?hash=item468dedaae5:g:qM4AAOSwjPdZ2WeO:sc:USPSFirstClass!18067!US!-1:rk:27:pf:0 these wheels: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Traxxas-7171-Wheels-Dished-2-2-in...

Send them an email.

Nice work!

Looks like coxbros1 has won the tiebreaker. Congrats!

If you haven't done it, make sure you boil all of the parts from the peroxide bath. If you don't get it out of the plastic, it will eventually eat away any anodizing those parts are touching.

I usually do it a few times. Changing the water each time.
