bmuzz1's C1 Pacer

[bmuzz1]

Outside pics...





And a pic of the lights powered up...




It's not a high scoring rig for C1 but that's okay with me. Pointed out at 36 in its current state, I guess I'll just have to drive REALLY well.

Looks great! I want a couple of those lightbars, got some ideas. All I think it needs is a little AZ flag on the antenna.

Well I did just make an AZ license plate with my screen name.

Haha. I like the fact that it doesn't have a spare tire carrier. Keeps it clean.

That thing looks great. Hell, toss a spare on the roof rack. Great rig! Love it!

Thanks man, appreciate it!

I'll plop one up there and see but I'll probably go without.

Must be an AZ thing like they are an extension of the house that you can only stand to be in a few months a year. Lol

Thanks buddy!

you know I looked online for a pacer body after first seeing this build. It inspired me. They are purdy nonexistent.

Not sure what it is about cars that make such great class 1 rigs. Great work guy

They are very very tough to find. I stumbled on this one on Scale4x4 after keeping an eye out for over a year, the same with the Gremlin. I know who has one but he'll probably never let it go.

Thanks a lot man!

[bmuzz1]

I am considering making an interior for the Pacer but I will need to make some clear windows. I need some input from someone experienced with making/forming windows, can it be done using the original windows some lexan and a heat gone without damaging the black windows?

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

This thing is pretty sweet with custom bumpers front and rear and sliders. Also looks to have custom shock hoops. I'm not sure who made it but it looks like they did a great job. Can't wait to get this thing in my hands and start working on it, now I just need to decide which one is going to Utah with me in April.




And a quick pic of it's brother...

I saw one just like the green one at the KOH G6. They are pretty cool in person, defiantly stand out.

[bmuzz1]

Not much of an update but I figured I'd share.

I had installed some scale hardware on my Gear Head slot mags and posted a pic on Locked Up RC's facebook page, Patrick responded asking me if I thought that Axial rings would fit because he thought the Agile rings would look pretty sweet. I went out to the garage and tested out an old stock ring and it seemed to fit so I went ahead and ordered a set plus some extra hardware.
Here is the finished product, Locked Up RC Agile rings, 2mm Acorn lugs and zinc scale hardware.

Those have to be a total pain in the ass to put together... but they look soo nice. "thumsbup"

[bmuzz1]

Actually they aren't bad at all James. There are only 6 bolts holding the ring on the rest are dummy's. The other really cool thing that the designer at Gear Head thought of was to line up the ring bolts to the hub bolts so you know which ones to remove when changing tires, etc.
