Man, that's looking nice. Wish I had the equipment, knowledge, available space, etc, to do something like that ~ More peace, love, laughter & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |

Nice "color swap" on the allows axles. I went with the black axles, but noontime the silver servo mints on both axles...with black Futaba servos. ~ More peace, love, laughter & kindness would make the world a MUCH better place |

Yeah, little lazy when it comes to my hobbies too. I don’t have the machine though. Only a basic mig and stick machine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Started dash piece and painted chassis. I used a stainless flek paint on it to try and get close to the Vanquish Gray. Also excited to try it the team garage hack trans, I built a try for a buddy awhile back with this trans and he seems to really like it. I'm pretty happy with the build so far |
