Picked this one up recently, loved the body and I didn't have any of this version, so here we go....

Came with box and all paperwork, manual is pristine! Never seen a seller take such great care in shipping.


But.....he painted the chassis and parts.


And ran outdoor....


So I stripped the paint, chassis was too far gone so I routered out new plates.....and here it is...




Not sure why he didn't just use the wing mount tubes to mount the body but instead he had a piece of plastic formed into a "T" and it was a bit flexy for my tastes. So....made a G10 "T" and used double side tape to affix




I needed the white servo saver for another project so the black one is installed until I find another.

Nice job! What Thunderbird body is that? AE or ???

I wish I knew, I am looking for more!

THAT WAS THE AUCTION I MISSED OUT ON I WANTED THAT CAR. at least it went to a good home anytime u wanna sell keep me mind thanks

I was very surprised that nobody else bid. The seller was a real cool guy, I sent him a thank you for the nice packing job and he sent me a novel back lol.

After stripping the paint that chassis was pretty destroyed- but now I have a LW chassis and tray template

well if ya ever wanna sell that body let me know thanks

cleaned up very nicely, its a 12e weight saver by BTW
