I see on the bay a nip TBG with wing for 18

Don't underestimate shipping.

No, the TBG 6 or 7

What do you think about FRP front and rear dampers stay?
I remember that I have a pair of these.

I don't know about the TBG Manta Ray body, but the TBG Bigwig shell I had was too small, so it is a poor fit on, especially on the roof .. and postage was more like 10 GBP.



As an aside, the only reason I can think of for a "repro" body to come out too small is if the vacform buck was made by taking a casting from an original body & doing no resizing work on it ... some extra material (& sculpting) has to be done, or the effect is that new vacforms are smaller than they should be. Strange but true

Or maybe also not working with quite the right temperatures and lexan that's too thin...
Shrinkage is what I remember from the TF undercowl I received.
Which was replaced at postage only ($6 - fits through the mailbox) later btw.
Plus they changed the design of the item.

Anyway - FRP shock towers are a great idea! You'll be needing some J parts...

Yes, the Falcon was some millimeters larger (3 or 4 mm) but nothing terrible.
Probably the Big Wig is made from the inside of the original body?

Thanks guys,
TBG is not a very good thing... But I can't buy a body more expensive than the complete car
I bought my Bear hawk 30

A J parts tree shouldn't be to hard to find. Jason's Store regularly has them.

Just reminding an original Blazing Star is 25-30 euro shipped...
Could be a good temporary (?) solution.

Normally I receive my Manta ray next week but I want to rebuild one II think that it will be a blazing star with my Wrangler wheeles. I puted the low ride conversion kit on it.
