well, thanks to bigmoose, i now have the andy's chassis i'd been looking for. and to make it even better, it's the entire kit. all new, in the original box.

shodog, remember when you asked me if andy's made rear arm mounts, and i said i didn't think so? well, i was wrong.

you lucky boy

You already know what think! Sweetness!

Really cool. Those are few and far between.

i'm gonna try to refrain from starting on this until i have everything i need to finish it. but, i doubt it will happen. i just can't help it.

Oh yeah. That's nice. You know you gonna start building it asap
And no one here would blame you.

Dang it, one more thing to chase after

that looks sweet, what parts do you have in mind for it? any theme?

well, one nice thing about this is the main chassis/suspension stuff is figured out already. it's just a matter of which shocks, trans, and tire/rim combo you want to go with. this one, like my other andy's molded chassis w/ the standard kick-up, i'm gonna use the mip shock bodies. the thing that sucks is now i need 8 black aluminum shock caps instead of 4. it'll most likely have a stock 6 gear trans, too, since i don't have any more mip's. and i don't want to drill the chassis for a stealth. i'll use the trailing arm setup on it, also, with the tall rear tower. on the front, i'm going to use a tall molded andy's tower i have instead of the one that came with the kit. that way, i can use the 1.02 shocks on the front. i like the tall shocks on the front.

but, neither of the andy's molded cars i have will be done until i can get those shock caps. if i have to, i'll strip an polish some blue ft caps. but, i only want to build them once.

WHAT!!!!! i would NEVER use a sharpie on one of my cars.

And I'd never use black electrical tape to hide the "servo access" hole on an otherwise perfect black chassis...
