I'm building this car from several months, maybe that anyone has already seen it on TC.

I've bought it after Christmas on an italian site and probably it came from France... number of previous owners: unknown.





First pic at home (previous are made by the previous owner):



After a pair of hours:



After collecting some parts (original spares, £D printed parts & more) I was ready to start the build:



3D printed bulkhead from ORB Racing, stainless steel screws from RC Schrauben.



Steering mounted on his supports and after on supports made by rocker nuts and aluminum spacers to solve problems concerning fixing and smoothness.



Rear arms support



Full rebuilted TTC, 16x2 Corally brushed motor rebuilted by me with new parts



Overviews





Rear tower and its 3D printed support



End of the first step



Where ideas start to grow



Built from scratch battery strap MK1



Definitive



Front strut brace needed when longer damper pivots are used (Mad Cap arms instead of originals)



The car completed with Mad Cap arms, turnbuckles and wing



The car on its own (old) wheels for the first times after months. New unis installed thanks to Blitzer hub carriers. 2/3 of the electronic in place.



Lexan items added: TTC cover and undertray from Canada and original body. Unfortunately I've finished the can of white and the local hobby shop doesn't sell lexan colors () so I have to order it on line (). Low profile servo is on the way.
