Re: Gold pan whole lotta metal build.
Yes, Jake is the mystery man. His work is second to none!
I have it about 95% complete. The shiny CVD's I have are way too short, haven't finished the wheel spinners, battery tray(think metal), wing tubes, and a few other odds and ends.

Re: Gold pan whole lotta metal build.
Shoo-ee! That's a beast and a half! It's one of those builds where the attention to detail just makes me ashamed of any of my cars. I gotta get my priorities straight.

Re: Gold pan whole lotta metal build.
I knew that bulkhead was going to look good.
That is one impressive build. I really like the idea of not having the entire car ano'd. The raw aluminum really stands out with the ano'd parts.
Nice job Bob
Oh just so everyone else knows, that is the only bulkhead I am going to make, sorry

Thanks! Any idea where they can be found? I have a set of Sees knockoffs, but rather use something smaller. Anyone know the thread pitch of the front B4 axles?

Re: Gold pan whole lotta metal build.
i have a couple sets on some of my shelfers, hard to come buy, i always see the 10-32 losi sized come up but never 8-32
they also made 2 variations, the earlier ones had a solid front, and the later ones had a completely drilled through hole, guess it made it easier to tap threads going all the way through as opposed to just 3/4 of the way in.

Re: Gold pan whole lotta metal build.
Thanks Mike. I'll keep my eyes peeled. I do have a set of Sees knock-off's that I suppose could be re-threaded.
