the gearbox turned out looking great! With the belt drive it is almost completely silent running around! Glad you got it running again. A few more little things to go but certainly a cool one for your collection!
Right on man it warmed my heart a little seeing it go - I really wanted to quit this old girl once I got it apart and saw how sad it was - kinda like adopting a 23 year old cat that won’t let anybody pet it
I have the other version of this, The Tomcat. Not everyone's cup of tea but I have wanted to add a 2WD Hirobo to my collection for years. I've slightly modded mine with better shocks and tyres and it's still a pain to race - LOL
Yeah Jason there’s just something about this car - I think I kinda felt sorry for it when I saw it for the first time it was in such awful shape - I can’t see putting too much more time or money in it but (the gearbox cost me more than I paid for the car 🤣) that front shock has to be addressed even for the shelf 👍
