Mikes re-re gold pan racer build

[mikea96]

So i went into a local Hobby Town yesterday and was talking to a kid in there about vintage stuff and he said they had got a couple of gold pan re-re's back in december but never sold them, so they were actually boxed up and going back to the distributor on Monday so i asked if he could make a deal on one and he said 229.00 so i couldn't pass it up! I will start building soon.

That's a smokin deal. You could buy the other one and sell it on eBay for a bit of profit

I almost did buy both of them to keep one sealed and one to build but im saving for the worlds re-re.

So i have decided to go in the direction of this build i had earlier! http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=26069

Well i finally started on this and got the front end part way done. Im going to get some of the new white inline steering knuckles to replace the black ones and i sure hope that associated makes some white wide track front arms.

Went to my local track yesterday for a few hours and watched the races and got motivated to get some more work done on this. Lots of guys running the mid motor B5's and they handle very nice. Got my stealth together and mounted as well as the rear bulkhead and rear arms and hubs.

I mounted my new RPM gear cover!
