Hopefully it warms up enough for you to paint those wheels then JR

Couldn't help myself tonight Couple of laps of the deck

I forgot how bad this turns still brought back memories

Nice striker that decking comes in handy

Right then After getting this a couple of weeks ago I decided to get on to making it a runner I didn't strip it completely as its was already pretty clean, I did strip the gearbox just to check it was good the drive shafts needed some love though I blasted all the parts to be repainted and added a mesh roof Still working on the driver but all the other painted bits are done Made some mods to the front suspension and a custom gear box cover as it didn't come with 1 Chucked in a 2.4g receiver, basic esc and a silver can so we're just about ready to go

I don't see very well but is it a sand grit paper deco? I like it. and the small front shocks are very pretty.

Yes it is stone affect spray which does give it a sandpaper finish, the front and rear lights are gunmetal hammer tone which I need to add some details I made the front shocks from some broken rear frog alloys with the springs and suitable lowers The roof lights are HPI that I had spare and still need to detail, I will be doing something with the rim's (maybe just flat black ) I'm still figuring out what to do with the gun mount, It didn't come with the gun but maybe just adding a whip aerial would be good???
