I got all my shape ways parts that Niki designed first.

so like everyone else I used the two different drill bits and cleaned up the holes.

I dyed my parts as per gomachv's dyeing plan (thanks again for the Dye dude!) and got a out standing result

I got my retro Lunsford turnbuckles direct, super friendly people to deal with

here is the completed front end

New Zealand is having its first Vintage Nats early next year, it is my plan turn turn up with this and race it...

I have ordered all the "race" version parts to use for the weekend, but once that's done, it will be retired and added to my collection of rc10 memory's 8)

Sounds good. And then year after Vintage Nats comes again, you lift it off the shelf and make more memories :)

When I took my parts to show Kelly he took measurements for the hingepins as well, so they should have "kits" for us. Makes it easier than sourcing all the different ones and they are stronger to boot

I have had a look at the web site and they have a set for the rere and the worlds rere, will 1 of these do or is it a specialty set/sizes that is required for this build,

Great work and really good to see Lunsford continued support for our favourite genre... Oozzee mate you will need to email them to order non advertised stuff, gomachv has mentioned it somewhere about the worlds stuff and the vintage original turnbuckles' they still have...

I am off next week and plan to head back down and show him the finished worlds car. I'll ask how it's going with the sales, and make sure he has the right lengths ect.
