Default 2013 AYK BOOST vintage racer RE-build

It's been a good while since this car has seen any action. This car is an ongoing build in progress and after it's last (and first) run I worked out a few areas that needed more attention.
This car was pulled down more than 12 months ago with the intent to rebuild it and for me to address some areas that required a little more attention. This car was never destined for the shelf as a display only car so it needs to be functional. I'm a huge fan of the box art Boost and I wanted to keep as faithful to the cars original look as possible. No modern day shocks, no modern day arms and no modern day wheels. Ok, so the car will be wearing 2.2" modern rubber for the race track so I had to adopt some Yoke style 2.2" wheels as these were around when the car was on the market.
Last time this car saw the light of day all the parts were cleaned and all the metal parts treated to an INOX bath ready for it's rebuild. Until now everything was packed tightly into the kit box but for now it's time to let the parts breath once again.
