Look what the Mail man brought me ! 9 months 23 hours ago #78675

Not from mailman, but me!
Bought this today.
I want to do build a tribute of my late fathers beetle, but since I can only find body without decals and detail parts in my neck of woods, I bought a complete kit.
And I never built the MF-01X before...


And my LHS had summer sale so I bought this gorgeous HPI 69' Camaro costing 40% less than normal. I had to have it!

The camaro is a must ro have. 
For the mf01x, you'll need to mix the suspension position on the rear. If you put the high level like on the kit, you'll lost the rear left dogbone everytime. You have to put high shocks and lower arms. After that, it's very fun to drive. This body is awesome except decals wich don't stick well for linings windows joints and rear lights.

This is a new 4 link rear suspension kit for my Pontiac. Polyurethane bushings and grease fittings are a big improvement over the original.

Gonna take a while Flo. 

I enjoy driving it so much and we have had such a beautiful Summer here that I sometimes put off upgrades like this because I don't want it out of commission for the few days it takes. LOL!

A new Pin Vice 

After using a cheap one from fleabay, and then an average priced one from fleabay, I finally cracked the poops at trying to use drill bits <1mm, and finally bought a decent one (not from fleabay).

The f150 svt is one of my "modern" favourite bodies. I remember when it was released. And I see a rc10t back🧐🧐🧐🤩🤩🤩.  THE stadium (after the dyna blaster).

I finally got this in the mail today from US.
This was my very first copy of RCCA magazine, and since I lend it to a mate in the early 90s, I have not seen it ever again.
Now my RCCA collection is complete 




The postage time is a bit strange these days..
This letter from US took 3 weeks and 1 day to my mailbox...
Received something else from China via Ebay, that took 1 week and 4 days.. Also received today.
