Thank you everyone for your support. I only get a couple hours a night to work on it, after the kids go to bed. As soon as I finish the shock mounts and pick up up the axles from Warpig, it will be a roller.  |

I picked up some parts tonight. Thanks Tim.   This will be the sway bar arm. There are not as cool as Tims custom milled arms, but they will do.    The wheelbase is 13.5 at 13 it looked too short. I think 13.5 looks right.   |

Im now starting on my front lower links. I like to use 1/4 .049 wall aluminum tubing. I use 8/32 all thread and traxxas rod ends.   Tap each end   The 1.1 buggy is running solid 2 inch alum links.   Now for the front track bar. I install car alarms all day and I have a bunch of actuator strap. This stuff works great for things like this.      Now for some dimple dies.        Every night I will be working on this thing and posting up progress until voting for TTC starts. |

Look what I got in the mail today.    The body I started with is alot smaller. I will need to use them both. On the 1.1 Jason used 4 doors, 2 hoods and 4 front fenders. The rear fenders on the 1.1 are actually front fenders of a truck. The hood was cut into 7 pieces and the dash is another hood. |
