Well I was chuggin' right along on the fAuxStute:



And I had an epiphany - so . . .



And then these parts were stolen from my Egress kit:



And all the parts needed together:



Turned into this:





And now I feel like I'm on the path to a proper fAuxStute

Well, I burnt the midnight oil last night (this morning?) and here's where I am now. I did toy with the idea of a MSC, but then the OG manual got the best of me:

 

 

 


And I was successful getting the Egress front wheels installed with the help of a set of reinforced Wild One steering upright/axles, hex bearing adapters and some shims. Now I just have to decide if I'm gonna trim off the height of the nibs to closer match the OG tires.

Fantastic Todd.

Final paint on the NSU TT.  Couple of small paint fails that aren't to major, so will hopefully be able to hide/fix.  Next will be attempting apply all those looooong skinny decals in nice straight lines.  Also need to adjust/shim the rear wheels.
 

And for a bit of side-tracked amusement, I picked up an iconic toy, of an iconic car, from an iconic movie......  Turns out, it's also fairly much a 1:24 scale.  So here's two of Nissan legends;
 

(and yes, i've already ordered some blue LED's to add undercar neons to the GT-R)

In the end of 2023, I found in my mess a lego joblot. That gave me the opprtunity to rebuild 3 or 4 models. And after Richard's topic, I put my nose into my spares. And it appears that I could rebuild some sets. And I bought for xmas 2 sets. So one wasn't complete. And here is the result. 

thanks Richard 😁

Today I started my Super Astute build. Gonna use my period NOS Trinity motor from 1987. Not sure if it was meant for on or off road but should move a rather light 2WD buggy fine. In the last picture you can see Tamiya choose to replace one 2mm clip with another. Usually they will alert you but nothing this time. Seems to work fine.

I love these frp chassis. Maybe one day, I'll have a dyna. Storm or better a blaster. But it's maybe latttterrr

And you have a frigidaire.... Welcome to France 🤣🤣🤣

Weekend improvements in the RC bar area. I do believe I am finally at the point in my collection of TRF and Hop-up parts that I needed my very own parts wall.


And then I rebranded a clock in tamiyaness. Yes the numbers are tamiya club day stickers for authenticity.😁
