progress has slowed a bit as i try to finish my pro arena truck, plan out and gather parts for my ultimate XJ Scaler, look for clod wheeels and tires, and try to get some TC carpet racing in


not the actual body but it will be a 72 chev and im thinkin of using the AM PM Boss colors

I've made a few cages out of solid brass rod and it was tough as nails! Now the joints are another question!
