93 WCS poss ran at 93 Worlds UK? Magazine Feature!! :-D

[jamin]

Thats ok Ben... the hunt goes on

Its half the fun right!?

[DerbyDan]

Was lucky enough to score the correct KO decals for this car some time ago but only managed to capture these images of my 93WCS in the early morning sun last Saturday (12.05.12)







Jose was kind enough to send me some Rajimagazine decals (the correct Japanese writing on the L/H side) They were the wrong size but I have produced an AI file from them & I am hoping to get this, along with the remaining decals re-produced at some point

Whats is doing on that dirty gravel Dan!!!??? Get it back on the shelf!!!

Looking stellar Dan!!!! I'm still floating in space on tbe decals for you other than the green Reedy, but I only have 1-2 weeks left of the craziness at work and then it will relax enough to finish that up! (And the wife and kids are out of town for a week too)

[DerbyDan]

I must admit - it is quite tempting to give the old 'Mr' Reedy a skim, charge up some 1700 SCRCs (peaked until the heat shrink starts to melt LOL) & take it for a blast.... I'd love to know how the World Champion's car handled

@ Charliedon'tsurf - i'm in no rush for the decals, so no worries although with them I think I could finally call this project complete. It would be nice to add some electrics (HPC Speedo & PS1001 KO Servo) but I think i've spent enough on this build now

[GJW]

think you will ever beat this buggy as a display piece dan? just steller man

[lilpanther]

I had never heard of these buggies before joining this forum and they are really starting to grow on me. And I am enjoying seeing all of these replica builds. Keep up the great work.

Little update;

Added a couple of decals, the first is the 'Rajimagazine' sticker that runs down the R/H side of the shell, I got a couple of originals from mamadoesn'tletme (thanks Jose') but were too small - so I created an enlarged copy on Adobe Illustrator - which a mate was able to use to cut the lettering out on a vinyl cutter. The size is perhaps a little on the large side compared with the original decal - but I would like to replace it one day with a proper printed-on-clear vinyl sticker.

The second was a large pink KO Propo decal that appears on the underside of the rear wing... I only realised it existed following the posting of a scan from the UK based 'Model Cars Magazine' by CATS/Renays on the Tamiyaclub site - showing a rear low level shot revealing this decal.



I had the car out in the sun over the weekend - taking it along with me to a Japanese car show (seemed apt) that my local club was involved with putting on a display of R/C cars, so took the opportunity to take some pics to show off these new decals





& some gratuitous shots;

I'd say four screws - & the wheel hubs are 'natural' magnesium colour

Killer Dan!!! I messaged our guy about the thing in the place- waiting on a response still. PM me your addy again and I'll get you that Reedy sticker for the wing, and the correct proline one for the nose out this week too-
