Default Cougar 2 runner.

Hi all,

Just thought I would share this. I have done a few builds on here so this wont be a full build as not wanting to bore you all......

I have managed to get hold of a cougar 2 from a fellow oopler in America who kindly sold it me......

The chassis came with the normal scratches and grooves and wanted to sort this. I wanted it as a runner but wanted to sort the chassis along with full rebuild.

I have had hydro-dipping and powder coating done both are and were stunning, but thought I would try this myself to see what would happen. If it was pants I wasn't really bothered as Its my racer.....

So I trotted into the garage with a block of wood, wet and dry, primer, chrome glitter base coat and candy red.

It took me 3-4 hrs a day over 3 days to get the finish and scratches out. Remember its a runner....

Then primer etc...... as above and the finish I think is good enough for the shelf. I will show pictures of the others bits along the way including the finished cougar 2.

What you think lads/ladies............
