Damn that's amazing.
If you don't mind me asking. What did this project cost, time wise (to collect the parts), money wise?

Re: Team Car project started
That's awesome Reg. I doubt many could get much cheaper on a build like that. Well worth putting together. It will be cool to see the progress.

Re: Team Car project started
Very nice.
The early kits came with 6872 TQ-72 Fronts/6822 TQ-22 Rears. I have a later example that has 6873 Fronts / 6823 Rears. As a side note, the later version I have is also one with the newer style white rear A-arms which use the 7356 inner hinge pins.
PM sent on the rear rims.

Re: Team Car project started
As usual it looks like it's going to be a topnotch example. Are you going to build a runner so you can come race the VONATS next year?

Re: Team Car project started
The VONATS timing is always really bad for me, but I may find a way--but I'm looking forward to the on-road nats this Feb for sure
Re: Team Car project started
I'm looking forward to the onroad race too, my worlds dual sport is ready for gearbox class. I just need to find a 12th scale. I was watching an old CRC car from 94 but I was out of town when it sold.
