58087 Manta Ray resto 11 years 9 months ago #11798

Hi guys,

finished the chassis quite a while ago, therefore no pics available while i wasn't member of TB then so i didn't make any photo's of my restorations :S

But to make it short it was a normal resto:
Strip, clean, make inventory of missing/broken parts, get replacement/new parts and rebuild.


Then on too the body work, got an old MR body. it looks good but has some nasty scratches on it. So i ordered a new one from TBG to make life a bit easier this time :P
old:

working on new:




Decals i already order a while ago also:


Now on to the painting and decals....

Cheers, Bram

I've railed against "plastic whizzy buggies" in the past, but I have to admit - that looks fantastic :y: B)
