Re: Composite Craft Predator Lynx re-build
Now, this part is a little interesting, at least to me
I hope you guys like it.....it's taken a lot of searchin, work, time and help from a friend in Spain that I know some of you guys have heard of/ordered from (Mr. Cesar Velayos Enriquez) to make up some custom, one off, labels. These are brand new Panasonic/Sanyo 2500mah SCR nicad cells, they call em Superscr's. I ordered em in 6 cell stick packs, disassembled them, added the base red heatshrink, label, then clear heatshrink and assembled them into saddle packs. I think Mr. Enriquez knocked my idea of modifying the OG 1400 SCR labels to reflect 2500mah out of the park!

Re: Composite Craft Predator Lynx re-build
The latest update. I'd been meaning to get around to shortening up the wires on the esc to give it a more cleaner look. (Before pic first,After last) I think she turned out pretty good and I managed not to melt the dean connector while making the jumper wire. These parts look a lot smaller than I remember as a kid!

Re: Composite Craft Predator Lynx re-build
Been a while since I added to the thread...but progress is being made....bumper fab...since I couldn't find a decent OG pan car bumper I liked that matched my old one (see id photo), I decided to go DIY. Covers about 85% of both front wheels (TRC Style) and fits under almost all '80's bodies. Drawing added in photos in case anybody might be interested. Suggest doing up a cardboard fab to spec first...easier to judge the degree of kick up you might want before moving to the kydex. I actually went about 35deg. instead of the 45deg. on the drawing. I ordered 4 sets of every size RJ speed body posts...so should be cutting and mounted bodies soon...I hate cutting lexan, wish me luck....just gotta find somebody to paint em up....then,finally, track bound for this build.

Re: Composite Craft Predator Lynx re-build
The custom labels on those cells are a nice touch, props to Mr. Enriquez for the killer work. I’m really thankful for what you share, it’s always great to see these vintage rides getting the attention they deserve.
