Worth the wait,just released Fibrelyte JRX-Pro carbon chassis

[cas22]

I got this old chassis with a box of odd cars 5years ago now and have been slowly chipping away at rebuilding them.
I had a new JRX-Pro and always liked it; this one had seen better days so I contacted Stephen at FibreLyte to look into Moulding a replacement kick up chassis.
I sent him the old chassis and towers said I was in no rush and forgot about it.
For a year, then covid, then he was making parts for Olympic cycling teams, then another year, until my chassis arrived yesterday.
after it popped up on Facebook and i thought ... that old chassis looks familiar? a lot like mine... because it was.
I'm stoked, typical immaculate quality, and the towers in 2.5mm Carbon as well.

Spent some time slowly collecting bits as finances allow, rpm ball ends, lundsford turnbuckles, and 3D Printed front bulkhead, wing buttons and battery clip.
I replaced all the hardware with stainless cap screws and could only find metric nylon nuts, so will tap these out to suit 4:40 etc.
Collector here helped me with spur gears and slipper, (thanks Matt) and also the shock bodies in silver, as mine had a mix of black and silver.
Also found the shock collars and rebuild kits are still available, and traxxas driveshafts will fit(?)
The 2" proline rims popped up here in NZ , and i have a JR's choice motor that needs a new decal prior to fitting.
Heaps to do,

Heres some as found pictures, not sure why the saddle pack holes were cut in the chassis, pretty sure its not factory.
Would of been a lot of work for minimal performance gain compared to standard stick pack

It´s going to be sweet!
Need some initial cleaning though.
