Well, I felt it was best to ditch one set of pink springs. I just couldn't get enough ride height out of them since they were shorter and relatively soft. I swapped out the inside set for a set of stiffer red springs I have so now it has a nice stance even with all the weight on it.
My neat n tidy wiring work
I can't stand excessively long battery leads and I hate splicing wires even more. I went ahead and opened up the ESC and installed brand new leads directly to the board.. Um yeah, that was a PITA... the back of the board is essentially plasti-dipped. I had to score around the edge of the pc board and pull the black rubber coating off before I could do any solder work. Not difficult but I just didnt' expect it.

It popped up in the random gallery today. First time I ever saw it. Posted by the Z-man himself. Our very own Zandor, for whom the OZEC patrol is named.

Finishing up...
Welp, I finally got around to finishing gluing the tires so it's officially RTR now. The only other thing that needed to be done was to cut up the rear RPM bumper as it is not compatible with the roll cage straight out of the package. The mod is not complicated, but simply takes some time and patience in order to look relatively clean. A Dremel with a cut-off wheel is all that was used.
Now it's just time for paint

on the RPM website they show a mod for the bumper to make a scale trailer ball. I think that's really cool, but not sure if it would go with the pink theme, unless it was pulling a pink motor home kinda like the one unique did for Pammy Anderson in pearl. That would be a whole different project.

yeah, I don't think a ball hitch would really fit the scheme here. It's a nifty idea though. Now I just have to start drawing up the paint scheme. I have some ideas in mind. All of a sudden I'm feeling overwhelmed with projects again. I guess I kind of like it that way though.

I think she would promptly throw it in the trash. Actually, I'm quite sure of it. Well, maybe not throw it in the trash, but she would certainly never drive it.

I think I'm going to do Amber's body (Amber is my girlfriend, and I'm talking about her TRUCK body) in a classy pink vistorials secret scheme. I doesn't get much more girly than that.

I'm soo pathetic when it comes to projects. It's literally been 10 months since I stalld out on this. Well I've finally gotten the itch to paint this sucker so this is the basic theme as it sits now. It will be mostly two-tone, Pearl White over Pearl Pink. Some silver trim between the top and sides and white/black trim around the angular shape which will be Pearl Pink on the inside. I may do a little more with it but I'm not sure yet

lessen you could get some pink shock socks and put over the red springs.. or white and die them! if not maybe black ones.
