I agree, the original RCCA build had Mini Mag's, I had the hardest time finding any, so I just went my own way. Nice find!

Pargu makes repro Mini-Mags but they're different widths and have different hubs. They're for a Yoke.

BME made a unique offset front nose that was wider on the right side. Also had a special front shock tower for it. A stock front nose will fit the chassis though.

Thanks for the photo! Well I guess I'll better start collecting the parts for the BME chassis I just bought then. :mrgreen:

A really good Schumacher Cougar 2 Works arrived to add to my collection this morning, along with a Nitro Panther that I'll clean up and re-sell.

Once it's fully restored it will look great on the shelf alongside one of the Bosscat Works I also need to restore, and the other one I need to build up to race.

Sooooo many projects...
Using my son as an excuse to relieve my youth. :lol:

Finally scored a Parma Challenger Sprint Car body and it looks like it will work out on my RBS car. Second body is a McAlister Gambler. :)

Got in two lots. First one consisting of used Ultima RB Type-R parts, second one of a big lot of new Kyosho parts including a LAW-12 Hyperclutch (which turned out to be missing the layshaft - second time I have a Kyosho slipper with a part missing from the bag - luckily there was someone on Ebay who had the layshaft for sale...)

Officially only picked it up for the Celica GR.B Center Diff set, but all the other B2 and B3 parts, and the wing set, helped offset the postage nicely!

Optima Mid rear Option House ball diff. This was a hard part to find for the price I was willing to pay.

It's for my dirt oval car project I started just over two years ago. I never thought the parts collection phase of the build would take this long.
