Noice!:cool:

Are all the plastic parts new? They look so black & shiney!:)

Hi Dan,

No some of the plastics are new.

New fitted are,

Front bulk head.
Rear bulk head.
Driveshafts.
Transmission case.
Hinge pin blocks.
Shock towers front/rear carbon.
Hinge pins
Rear shock bodies.
Front hinge pin brace.

Think thats it Dan. I clean all my plastics with Pledge, pre-wash with washing up liquid warm not hot then pledge them. :D

Chassis build complete !!!!!!!!!!
 

Ok then,

Chassis is complete now. Ive just fitted brand new front and rear wheels, front and rear tyres and the wing.

I will be starting body next so over the next few days I will hopefully get this complete and stickered up.

So heres the chassis hope you like.

Oh forgot nearly complete got the alloy rollers to do. Then its complete.......

Hi all,

Just had to put this up. My race buggy is a Tamiya 201 Vega Gen3 I have just put the Cougar 2 Team against the Gen3 and its nearly as long. If I was to put Cougar front wishbones on I think it would be longer.:woot:

I find this very interesting as the Cougar is 1991 where as the Gen3 is 2013 I just would not of thought that the Cougar 2 was so long. This said the original Cougar would be longer :woot:

Body Paint !!!!!!!!!!!
 

Been masking most of last night. Been painting all day. So tonight I will be putting stickers on body shell. If I finish I will put the body on tonight.:D

Ok then all, body finished stickered up and fitted. Its how I ran it back in the day. Well pleased with outcome just got to sort the alloy rollers when fitted I will put pics up.:thumbsup:

Click to enlarge pictures.....
