Default Cougar 2 Works

Due to popular demand here's another thread

This will be my 2WD entry for this year's revival, this was a gift from the legend that is Mr Rowlands

So this was what I received



It started life as a team car and came with a works rear box. I managed to pick this up from Fiberlyte as part of a project they did for someone but they never got finished.


I started to strip it the other night and the rear diff felt a bit stiff and had a hole in it???


It took some getting apart and it soon became clear why


Yep some numpty had glued it up and for some reason had drilled thought it so the only thing that's good for is the bin!!

I managet to get a works chassis from Chris for a template so I could trim the cf chassis down. All that's left to do is trim a little off the front and then drill it



That's about as far as I've got for now, more to follow as soon as I get chance I've got a TC to build first that I need for June. I really need to prioritise thing lol.

Just build with the chassis I sent. You wouldn't want to hurt that carbon baby on the track. Send it over. I'll give it a nice cozy home in my display case.

Not a chance you've got way too much good stuff anyway.

do you have a spare diff to use? Or the parts to rebuild it?

Also Damo has the genuine works tower pattern from towers that I gave him to template so if you need some you know where to go
I've got diffs buddy don't worry about that and I've also got a set of works towers I got them with the chassis.

Soon maybe but he's been saying that for the last 2 years or is he doing it before all the other stuff he's got on that ever expanding list
