Cheetah Telesis
I kinda realized that after so many years of being a member that I have never posted a build thread. Sure I've shown completed stuff but never a series of build pics. Well no time like the present!
The goods ... Front End Assembly No Doubt that it's vintage! Almost there ...

Re: Cheetah Telesis
ahhhh the sweet smell of completion!
I used TRC Radials on all 4 corners, Tekin electronics, GRP matched cells and a CAM mod motor. Topped it all off with a S&K Airs body. I don't think I'll paint it ... the chassis it just too cool to hide!

Re: Cheetah Telesis
already has that, Jason.
Are there any other major Cheetah pieces I'm missing that I haven't seen before?

Re: Cheetah Telesis
oh, I didn't know there was another version. The one you showed might be more period correct but only by a couple years.
Gee, thanks another impossible part to find.

Re: Cheetah Telesis
Yeah the pod that is on the car Brian is the pod that came first and sold by itself. Then the telesis came out with the pro flex t-bar and graphite upper and lower plate. I also did a second telesis buil I haven't posted and I do have an extra rear pod if your interested
