Those who were at Telford will know already that I was able to acquire this kit for a bargain price on Sunday.
I spent most of last night messing around with the box contents and I have formulated a plan for it.
I'm planning on jacking up the rear and dropping the front to improve the rake. I did consider a ratrod esque look but I've moved away from that. I have a pot of a mica red from Zero that I think will really suit it.
Flames may be in order and I have found an online supplier of plotted and lazer cut vinyl masks for these.
An MCG grill will be added. Richard Middleton has a set of 3d printed rear suspension upgrade parts but I think that is a bit more than I was looking to spend. I'd love a set of turned metal pulleys and belts for the front of the engine as I'm planning an exposed powerplant. Does anyone know of a supplier for these parts?

Hi,
I was forgetting how stupidly big that model is!! How about using aircleaners meant for a smaller scale as pulleys?
Cheers,
