Very nice job! And honestly the Tamiya tires look perfect on there! Especially the fronts as they actually fit where as the originals just looked like remnants glued on the front wheels.

Thanks, still haven't paint this 962...instead, I have installed electronics in my RC10LSS. :mrgreen:
It's a nice 10LSS I bought on Ebay, it has a Composit Craft chassis and Team shock.

Mostly a new parts build. :P

Beautiful job, inside & out! What's the purpose of the diffuser? I've seen those before, is it to clean up the airflow under the body?

Very clean looking and damn sexy. Where did you find the Ford Capri body and who made it?

The rear diffuser is for downforce. The body is from Tamiya :oops: :oops: :oops:

They also have the Wurz version.

A fine tip sharpie marker is what I always use. Probably what he did as well. Just guessing. I do that to all my bodies. It really ads detail once its finished.
