Alright. Everything is here. Special. Thanks to Just Bash It and CRCU. Lee and Curt are 2 of the greats in this hobby. As well as members Mr. Shock Guru and Mr. TITANIUM for all their help. Other parts and companies I've had great success with GKA, PPS, SCORCHED, ACER, LUNSFORD and many more. 3 bodies not shown. Not sure what I'll use yet.
I also have a box of many parts I am not using which I will throw in the classifieds sooner or later.

When does your hobby shop open lol! ?

Not much to report yet. I work pretty slow. People around here call it Western time. LOL Started the de-anodizing process and the parts have gone through their first rough buffing to get rid of and lingering primer or grime. Waiting on some conical and brush tip bits for the Dremel to get into some of the nooks and crannies I can't with the regular abrasive scotchbrite wheels.

Have a Dewalt bench polisher/grinder coming next week so they will go through that process later.
Also ordered an Iwata HB-SBS air brush and around 20 different bottles of Spaz Stik cause I found them on clearance.
At this rate I should be done by the end of the year.

That’s going to be one mega build when it’s finished..!!
My only concern is it’s going to be very heavy with all that aluminium..???

The tp motor and mugen diffs will more than make up for the added fat.

Not sure which pic you are talking about but probably NTF fans. He's on fb.

Hmm ? I don't do Facebook ...
Thx though for letting me know

Tekno shocks done. Emulsion.
Damn black paint on the caps won't come off.
Tried to de-anadonize them but nothing happened.
Wonder if the color is baked on.

Started on some dry fitting tonight and figuring out screw/bolt sizes. Waiting on my polisher pads so I can finish the Arrma diff cases and really get going.
P.S. I have no idea if the chassis braces are in the right places or need to be reversed until later in the build.

I’m tuned in for the whole thing!
