Another Vintage SRB Racer

Thought I'd post my latest find.

Buggy is pretty much all hop ups, as you can see, has a Thorp diff you can't see

The auction that mysteriously ended! Haha

Thats nice with the hop ups.. What body are you going to put on?

[scootmike]

I chopped up a lexan MRP Pro 110 body to try on it and a couple of other chassis, not really happy with the fit on this one.

Found a Parma Chenowth body that I'm going to try next.

Lots of great little goodies on that ride. with a little bit of elbow grease and polish, you could have that looking like new

That is the plan, will strip it down, give it a bath in the sonic cleaner, polish it up and reassemble with new bearings.

Have never had a SRB Thorp diff, kinda excited to pull it apart, would imagine it is a lot like the Scorpion diff.

It's a primitive unit. The three screws allow you to take the out drive off in order to access the center bolt holding it all together. Keep in the mind the center screw is bent on purpose to provide a bit of thread locking action.
