Short Arm AB Chassis?

Post by Synergy »

Was the original short arm car ever supplied with an AB stealth drilled chassis? Timeline says yes but there’s a strong opinion out there that the answer is no 🤔

The AB stamp was an A stamp chassis that was then drilled for a stealth and a B stamped over the A. The stealth came after the CE front arms were out, so there shouldn’t have been any way to get a short arm kit with a AB stamp chassis. Even mispackaged, the short arms were well gone by the time the stealth was out.

That seems to be the consensus, maybe our 25 year timeline needs adjusting?
