Hopped up re-re lunchbox

Lights were ordered from light_effects1 on E-bay. Rear lights were made by drilling carefully with a 4mm bit through the shell. Open it out gradually to 4.5mm and the diodes just push through and stay put!!

What an absolute beauty. I think hooking the spot lights up with a light kit would make it perfection! Nice one.

Lovely looking shell and wheels. You're a brave man to take an M-chassis off road!!

Thanks - I should update the pictures. I've sealed the lights so there is no light 'spill' inside the body and tidied up the wiring now....

Had to have this for my drift chassis at dusk...

They don't come on when you break unfortunately, but they fit nicely, are bright and the control box makes expanding easy. Nice easy single colour scheme so hard to get painting this one wrong - LOL!

These are great - stick some CVA's on it, a Tamiya sport tuned motor and wrap a cable tie around the servo saver to get rid of the slack. With these mods, you won't be able to wipe the smile off your face running this truck :-)

Just FYI - you've got your front upper adjustable arms screwed into the top hole on the right hand side hub, and the bottom hole on the left hub. Might make it handle a bit weird!!! Lovely otherwise

Well spotted Chizzther. If you take a look at the Escort WRC in my showroom, the bottom two pics are of my concours one. I had that one made up but never put on.

Not sure where the old Kent Bash site is, and I need to get a runner shell for it (too much effort put into this one to wreck it!) and then I'm good to go! I'll send you a pm.
