Finished my long term resto on this XLS CAT today. The chassis has been taken to bits, have been using many new parts when reassembling. The goal was to keep it as original as possible. So even the screws are 99% original schumachers from back then. The only part that is not matching is the rear carbon damper stay. Body is from TBG, decals are repros from MCI Racing. I'm happy Schumacher still produces the original 2.0 full spikes that are a little narrower than the often used 2.2's from nowadays. I'm quite happy with the result, so this girl joins my other vintage Schumachers in the glas cabinet, soon to be followed by my MK1 Cougar that is also being restored at the moment.
Thanks for looking
Cheers Mike

That is a fantastic job on the wheels. As mine is only for the shelf, I cheated and went for the alloy repro's.
