What am I working on?
Heres a little tidbit of the projects I am working on. Those vintage pros will be able to identify most of the parts here. This set is nearly ready for the anodizing shop. Most are Kyosho, all are not. -Jeff

By the way, Kyosho cast aluminum steering knuckles don't anodise for $hit. They did come out a neat "flat grey" color however

Re: What am I working on?
I missed this thread the first time around! All the parts looks great, especially the TRX1. I always thought the pale blue never did that part justice.
Looking forward to some build threads!!

Re: What am I working on?
I always thought the TRX1 motor plate looked crappy too. I was hoping it wasn't an alloy issue. I have had parts in the past that wouldn't take color well, and ended up looking like the stock traxxas plate. I was stoked to see almost everything came out perfect. The Yok adapters are for the Optima BTW, I always though yok rims looked better on other manufacturers cars than their own
. There is also a custom hub in there, that you will all see later as part of a slipper assembly for my stock ultima tranny. My TRX1 is really nice, but my Ultima is SICK
. -Jeff Thanks for the kind words BTW.
