I had some leftover parts from my previous restoration and the result is yet another Fox built from mostly new parts and period hop-ups. I collected those hop-ups in about 6 months and they included:

You-G dampers F + R,
Race Prep Dogbones & Axles,
Dirt Burners Front Bumper,
STAC aluminium Side Guard,
Litespeed motor heat sink and
Transparent Pro-Track upper chassis.

I think these hop-ups make my Fox so unique. I especially like the transparent chassis which is so unique. It allows you to mount and dismount radio gear without having to take 1/2 the car apart.

I have a NIB body awaiting painting. However as I have a baby upcoming I have put aside most of my painting work. So I took the body of my other restored Fox for purpose of taking the 2nd last picture.

I now have 3 restored/new built Foxes. These cars are just a beauty to look at :)

Oh yes, I do need a rear guard (as found on B tree) to complete the project. I would be grateful if anyone could help.

That is very cool. I wonder how I missed this one. I had to make the aluminum half of the ProTrack clear cover out of an original plastic OEM part. I think I like the nerf bars as they seem to flow better. I would love the template for the front bumper as I think I could reproduce it with some Kydex. I like the LightSpeed heatsink too. I hope you get the body painted soon, or just leave it clear and put it on top like I do. Do you still need the rear guard from the B tree??

Hi Crash Cramer: thanks for your comments. Time passed, the car looks just the same with a layer of dust LOL I have a second daughter now and hardly have time for it. So it stands 95% complete. I probably would source for the rear guard later on when my attention returns to it .
