Tod, the second msc is the good one. There are several msc types. Mainly for resistor wires length. The orange wires is similar to the monster racer and the king cab. I don't remind if my falcon needed the 4 cells pack.

Great pictures of your restoration, Very nice 😊
If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem mate :)

Thanks guys, the goal for this first one is to be a Survivor build, so nothing over done, over cleaned or polished if that makes sense. 
I want it to be 99% complete (stupid cursed lexan switch covers!) as if it wasn't just abandoned after it's last use and broken decades ago.
Ridden hard but put away clean and unbroken, lol.

The Keeper build can get all the pretty new parts mixed in with original parts.
Neither one is going to be perfect/flawless and I'm ok with that - too expensive

Several of my restos are survival ones. With used parts. And they are very nice with their history.

Did some wheel clean up and then my first ever attempt at tire letter painting.
I blame YT'er Tamiya Legends for making me want to paint the tires, lol:
