[Charlie don't surf]

Jason, probably not a good time but- I'm going to need that car back

[scr8p]

[mikea96]

Looks good! Can't wait to see the next update next year at this time....

[scr8p]

i haven't had much time for r/c lately. but the other day i was down in the r/c dungeon trying to straighten things up. i came across an outer 6 gear hub, and since i was going to have to pin one for this replica, i figured i'd take a break from cleaning for some drilling and tapping.

Cool ride dude!! x25! Can I have BST now??

[mikea96]

Lookin good but we would like to see a little more progress!!

[slotcarrod]

I was thinking I would post a comment some time in 2016, when things got a little closer to completion!

Sorry Jason, the dog made me do it! Looking great!

I for one, would like Scr8p to slow down a little on these builds and let someone else post pictures and threads on all their builds. It's like he's a build hog or something

I thought never getting anything done on our project cars was the norm.

Damn now I feel bad about my non-progess.

[scr8p]

guess what? more progress. so soon you say? well i say that too.

got the trans and shocks built and installed. the upper mounting nuts on the shocks are supposed to be white nylon. i thought i had a package of them but nope. so i just tossed those on so the shocks don't fall off. i also need to pick up some new silver springs (i don't have any more nice ones) and get some turnbuckles (among other things).

you may notice that the shocks are the same color as my b1.5 runner chassis parts. i had sent a bunch of shock bodies and caps along with those parts to get done in the "team color". well, he was unable to do it for whatever reason so i told him to do whatever he wanted with them in the dark grey range. that's what i got. eventually i will get a correct set done and swap them out.

When are they gonna fall off, when you run it??

[scr8p]

anytime in between picking it up and putting it back down.

That's looking really good... like almost a complete car!

a fellow member of the pa posse (jwscab) did some milling on a stock body mount to try and replicate the one used on the back of this car. and here it is........
