....so much for my custom painted body from Andy, it came back today.....UNPAINTED!....with no explaination... I am a past customer too. Going with plan B....got a guy at my local on-road track that does some custom work for himself, gonna see if he'll paint it....if not "the diamond one" will do a simpler 80s paint scheme on it.
Also, that motor wasn't suiting me either, I have a secret weapon coming for it, only option in this situation but it's on a slow boat

Joe Neri (brain dead designs) in Cali is a good dude too. He did the rc10talk giveaway body and is just wrapping up a GWAR body for my no prep car

Thanks Jeff....I appreciate the tip....just placed a custom MCI order, "the diamond one" and I came up with an 88' inspired paint scheme we can do....gonna be trick!

Man, that's weird and disappointing. It was gonna be bad-ass! Oh well, I'm excited to see what you have up your sleeve.

Maybe there's a paint and masking tape shortage. Dang pandemic! Keeping all the cool projects down!

....or it's the emperor's new paint job. I can see it! It's beautiful!

Did the 20% discount draw you in as well?

That sucks. It was just last weekend.

Roman piloting "SUCK MY WAKE"!!

Classic!

Its not finished but getting close, shocks not right yet so still trying to dial that in, trying a 3rd set tomorrow, hopefully: hint (premium Tamiya)...the body is finished along with the electrics...here's a sneak peak

Ooooo! I like the black paint job!

That boat picture is fantastic for so many reasons....

I'm paraphrasing but the Thumbinator put it something like this one time...."my pants are gettin' tight."

While I have no problem with Smirnoff vodka, I highly recommend that you try Tito's.
