He's a bigger dodge guy than me @Doom! I'm sure he's going to love it. I might have to scrounge around on evil bay some more to find another one

 

[WickedFog]

It looks great man! But if it were me, I'd peel those decals and play around with my airbrush, which I know you're just dying to do Just keep any paint away from easily scuffed areas of the body, and give the whole thing 3 or 4 good coats of clear.

I've been trying to figure out which clear to use. Any suggestions

I just use Krylon clear coat. It's pretty durable, but I have only ever used it on hardbodies. So I am not sure how it would hold up on a flexible body like that. For the pigments, I would stick with Parma Faskolor paints. They adhere to plastics really well.

I'll get a can and try it then. The dodge is a thicker new bright so it should hold up fairly well

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too.

I bought spur gears for my nephews revo 3.3

 

[Tunedfrog]

The good news is, I didn't buy these, we turned in our grocery store member points and I received these. It will finish my 1/24 build.
The bad news is, the wife and to get dressed and head back to the store to activate them.

 

[Kimmie28]

Free parts are always a plus
I found a good deal on some used crawler tires, wheels, and a body. I picked those up and almost have my trx4 sport back up and running.

 

[Tunedfrog]

Nice...

 

[Kimmie28]

I'm getting ready to place an amain order for a motor and other parts for other projects so hopefully in the next week or two I can give the sport a quick run
