ChrisT Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 (edited) It's been a while since I've done an on-road car, really got carried away with the buggies Having a spare chassis I only required a shell, so this was purchased. Wheels as well, already had them and gave them a squirt of gunmetal. Here's one Tamiya made earlier... The only difference I'll be making is fitting a touring car cockpit set 51614 Ford Mustang GT4 body 54298 LHD cockpit set TT-02 chassis TT-02R wheels Edited January 25, 2020 by ChrisT 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iff I was replacing them for oil filled, I'd fit the 54753 kit as I've found the alloy shocks to be too stiff in stock form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyMB Posted February 10, 2020 Share Posted February 10, 2020 Looks really nice that, very neat work. Interior makes such a difference, do you mount it to the body or the chassis itself? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interior makes such a difference, do you mount it to the body or the chassis itself? Thank you. Cockpit sets are mounted to the body with velcro. Depending on the positioning this can be to the sides of the shell or onto the boot and bonnet. It does make a lot of difference, I'll never smoke the windows out again.

Top work Chris. Thanks guys at first I wasn't keen on the boxart colour being gunmetal but it turned out lighter than I thought. Once the livery went on it all came together.
