Very nice!
I don't think those crystals will work for you though, those are the 91 and newer narrow band crystals.

I already tested and works great!! No glitches more than 30m away. This radios came with 72Mhz Cristals, but the sticker says Channel 78, 75.750Mhz... Figures why..

Nylon needs a little bit of rehydratation in warm water and some retrobright.... Then we finished Steering pod, It amazed me no suspension what so ever!!
