VERY nice! being a 1:1 drifter i met Vaughn (and the rest of the drift alliance crew) a couple times. SUPER chill guy and very down to earth. well that was 15 years ago before his ford sponsorship so who knows now...
i have a build i'm planning in my head and its inspired by a 1:1 that was inspired by the brocky 1:1 lol
its not TH based but it shares a lot of the same ideas/purpose.
great job on the cage, and your dedication to faithful reproduction in 1:10 is excellent!

one question: do you intend to have 2 radiators?? is the front supposed to be an intercooler?
from what i can see in this article Meet Brocky, Vaughn Gittin Jr.'s Latest Toy - Speedhunters
i think the front cooler is for the oil. (smaller AN fittings but still huge for oil!)
the bottom of that article has a full run-down of all parts, making your life a little easier to copy but you NAILED the seats! and, pretty much everything else too! GREAT JOB!!!

Thanks man. I have tried to replicate as best as I can.

I will be printing a front radiator. With the size of my headlights, I need to wait until everything else is then I will design the radiator to fit what little spacei have in the engine bay.

I got around to mounting panels yesterday. Looking pretty good. Few bits of misalignment but even the 1:1 is not perfect

Yep the blue and black will be painted on then I have painstakingly replicated every single decal and "X" and have had them printed by a hobby decal guy. Should receive them next week.
