So todayI had the day off. I decided to tear the front axel apart and put in my Beef Tubes. Weight uo front and down low! I finished the job and took the rear off to pit a second oair in the rear axel. No dice. The rear drive shafts have a sholder that wont go through the Beef Tube. So a dremel is needed. I had extra lexan from tge side panels. I made a tail gate from it. Pix soon. |

Ordered a rear tray from Dinky RC to finish off the rear end. I am going to paint it gold to match the rest of the rig.

I found out that I had a bad drive shaft part. Had to carefully cut it off and the spare that allanon1965 gave me solved the problem.

The search for a driver goes on. I bought a walking dead figure, but it is maybe 5/8 scale for the seats. It might be perfect for a SCX -10
