Welcome!

You have some very fine display buggys
Let´s see some pictures of the old Javelin.

I did a little research on this topic a few weeks ago. The above mentioned AE ball studs are 4,3mm metric - so if You use 4,3mm combined with ball studs in Your search, some results should come up. I ended up buying some fastrax (not described as 4,3mm) with cups from a uk seller. They´re a tad smal...

That's a really nice SE btw. I've always liked the graphics on that car.

One color paint job and a bunch of stickers - SWB MID´s in their boxart livery, are easy to do and looks good. Easier to sell, too

Good to see You back with an update

Thanks to Klavy, I got this
Manny Thanks!

Restoring the old 1/8 rail buggies are very time consuming but they do look good when finished.
Holler out if You need spares, I think I have some stashed away somewhere.

This is not how things are done around here. Please read the rules.

Nice Project Lars.
Regarding the rear drive shafts - If I recall correctly, You can use the HotDog rear drive shafts. They should have the same spec.

The Turbo Rocky suffers from the same disease

Yes, bottom ones are stock for the Stingers, Optima, Optima Pro and Javelin.

Last new parts spent on this build.
Ball differentials - Slipper modification - Optima Pro body - AND the finned motor plate.

Many thanks for the kind words.


Regarding the rear shock mount and wing mount -
Shock mount = LAW7
Wing mount = UMW-1
I didn´t do a proper build thread

Sometimes it takes just a little while to mount 4 tires and a wing

I´ll give it a thought, Doug

Right now I´m on Dadio´s side, I´ll just say that I was inspired by the Dyna Scorpion....3,5 decades too late

Thanks Todd,
I´ll mount a flashing beacon to keep You elderly folks from tripping over it
