that looks pretty good. but, that paint job is more like the 89 australian worlds car (stealth car). the one for this car shouldn't be too bad.

I got a sneak peak at the Masami car a few days ago--I think we have a new contender for
the most authentic car at the Vintage Nats

as cool as that would be, i don't think it'll be done for this year. maybe 2010.

of course, if i knuckled down and tried to get the rest of the parts i need to finish it, i might be able to get it done.

of course, if i would just get to work, and stop making excuses, oh then I have to paint a body and then mount it, then put body clips in, then use servo tape to................. i might be able to get it done.

i would guess. i don't have any back story about it, but that's how the car is in the pics i have to go by.
i think these replica builds look great,but i dont know if i could go threw with the whole 1 white 1 red front arm mounts ....but it is cool that you have what looks to be the car from the pics..

I've been going through the older stuff here, and I need to bring some of the Mods builds back to the top!, there is some super cool stuff around the 19th-22nd pages. I just wish that Hoopty wasn't so good about deleting his attachments--I know he has some really cool builds there

I think in one of his posts he stated that his old picture website went down and he lost them all. The image codes were probably lost with them. I think the older posts are from the formerly "locked" forum. And yes, the best stuff is in there. It still comes up in searches, but is gone from the main board. I think they just fed it into the other forums. Makes sense, but some might be lost forever so bump away. :D
