959 quarantine restoration! 3 years 10 months ago #60529

far out sorry u run into that bad brake
as for glue sometimes its best to find another part cuz if the glue dont hold its going to brake out the other half or make more damage to the car if your running it
um so
here a few upgrades i made see if u upgrade the radio u dont need the antenna pole
the chassis do come up on ebay from time to time but because of the virus out brake people cant ship the items
see the hex nut there its from the Tamiya Avante 1988 one only the other nuts are not the same some how
and they dont work as good
as for the dog bone no it dont fit the 959 the frog one its bigger then the 959 and ball at the end wont fit into the shaft for the 959 and its longer
i tried it lol
the 959 parts are hard to find yes but they can be cheap too i got a car from Canada for 136 usd like full car














Wow nice car!
I see you have the front Celica stabilizer bar - does that make a big handling improvement?

I also saw you listed a “center differential” as an upgrade part. Do you have one installed? What does it do exactly to improve performance?

Thanks for the tip on the Avanti 88 nuts, will look for some.

I think I’ve located and purchased just about everything I need with the exception of the dogbone. I’ve asked a lot of the ebay parts sellers if they have one but no luck so far. Hopefully one turns up!

Yes that’s perfect, just bought it. I also picked up the aluminum bottom plate kit, and celica stabilizer bar came today. All these metal upgrade parts I feel like I’m rebuilding the 6 million dollar man! “We have the technology... we can rebuild him...”
