just finished my boomerang project, that said I'm waiting for a new body since I'm not pleased with paintjob. otherwise a fun project to work on with many challenges. I will need to take the roof of and mount it back on the correct way, not getting the four big things on it.I could have changed to double front dampers, but i wanted to keep the boomer charataristics with only one damper in the front. I got the original decals for the boomer and wondering to use some of them, but not sure. I might Do a boxart art body with the new body I'm expecting to arrive any day now. I Do have all the original parts so if i want to make this a boxart boomer thats no problem.


Here is some of the things that i have done with the car:

- hopped-up custom adjustable suspension armes

- All screws have been changed to blue aluminum, except the one's for suspension

- Parma front stabilizator arms, original way to soft

- New front stabilizator mounts

- All adjusters change to fluoricent green

- Body's roof and a-arms been cut of and replaced with hotshot cage and roof

- Yeah racing dampers

- Changed front bumper

- Wheels and tires, (have green one's aswell but there is a colour differance on the wheels that i dont like so will need to paint them)

- Lowerd body

- changed rear damper tower

- Painted all blue parts black

- Ballbearings

Thanks again everyone. It took some time figurering out how to make the best solution for the front suspension, but i madr it in the end. During the summer i will make the inner mount in aluminum, at least that was my plan.

Nice job! You've really been experimenting!
I've recently been playing with a Boomerang too, and your roof was an inspiration as I am really a fan of the looks of the hotshot cabin compared to the standard Boomerang one.
Tasteful use of blue aanodising to replace the blue plastic.
Top one.
