Schumacher Cougar mash up

[primesera]

Here we have my Cougar mash up which, once finished, I hope to race at my local buggy club in the next few weeks. I raided my brothers stash of cougar parts in the hope to make one up but I needed a complete car to really finish one so purchased one from a chap on here which was a club 10 with the geared gearbox which I hope is more future proof than the belt drive



The past few nights I have taken the best bits from my collection to make up a loose car which needs finishing and all electrics put in but you get the idea from the pics





This is the layout I hope to achieve with saddle lipos



Anyone with any other suggestions or where I could get a good saddle strap or bracket for lipos that would fit nice?

Motor wise I hope to use a vintage brushed LRP or Reedy



I'll be getting a new Cougar 2 shell and wing but the one I have will do for now.
Many will notice just how much of a mixture of various cougars and possibly topcat parts on the car.

Can't wait to re-live my late 80's passion again
