Schumacher Bosscat Works Rebuild

Recommended Posts

I went for designs base on Moto GP riders. 1st one is Kenny Roberts JR, 2nd one is Kevin Schwantz. I think they came out really well.

Hey. I signed up today just to say this is an amazing job! I love the detail you went to in this rebuild

i just bought a Bosscat on eBay to do exactly the same thing - when I got it, I started stripping it, and it’s probably the worst put together car I’ve ever come across!

  • The diffs were pretty much locked solid with dirt
  • Not one of the bearings had it’s shield 
  • The screws used, were just completely random
  • loads of bent stuff 
  •  The bottom chassis had butchered holes

God knows if it’ll go back together!

I’ve already had to get a new fibrelyte chassis, belts, bearings, screw kit

Just wondered if you had any tips or advice for the build? Any new parts work instead of originals? Where do you source hard to find stuff?

Thanks!

Hey mate, haven’t been in here in a while so completely missed this. My apologies. Thanks for the comments. 
With regard to parts it the usual thing of checking on eBay and Facebook and just time. I ended up with 2 cars in the end and kept the best bits for mine but that was back when you could pick Bosscats up fairly cheap.

which parts are you after?
