I've had this for as long as my Striker and it's about time it got done! Chassis will be standard with ball upgrade but the body will get a different paint job (not decided yet)

Nice project

I always loved those chassis.

The Blackfoots look just great in a clear color...in black they just look more like toys and that's the reason i painted mine in pearl white.

Looking to see the end result..keep us posted.

i want some original decals for my blackfoot 3 kit but they are like hens teeth im going off the whole kit now it was a bit of an impulse buy and i have a wild dagger already which is roughly the same chassis but twin motored and thats less than inspiring.

Have to disagree over the paint scheme Manotas the original black and red is the best colour scheme

Thanks boys, I'm thinking about doing the Ranger scheme as a change

Ranger would look good

feedback good and bad = Product exactly as advertised, very happy! -- Good coms. a good repro of blackfoot decal. A few flaws on finer decals. -- The decals are bad quality. Tamiyas are ALOT better! These go to the garbage bin -- BIG THANK YOU, 100% HAPPY
