Post images of your MR015

Post images of your MR015 here, I'll go first.






Next to come, a set of red GPM battery clips, and red GPM rear shock. Oh, and of coarse I need a red GPM motor gear.

I can tell you that you like to look at your cars as much you like to drive them...your chassis look really good.

As it looks like you need a new HM mount and Im guessing your not going to get a blue one...you could still get a blue one and then use this stuff

http://www.jestcoproducts.com/buffing_compounds2.html

Scroll down...looks like they have some anodize remove that works very well
For examples of it...read this:

http://www.fixedgeargallery.com/articles/polishing/

You could probably buff the larger surface areas to a shine or find a local body shop that could sand blast it with some REALLy fine sand to bring out that high shine alloy. Id probably just buff as you dont want the sand blast to accidentally throw off the finely machined tolerances.

edit: Or you could try to find a local anodizer to match the red your looking for.

Just a thought and a tip.

Sorry to go off topic with the first reply.

Not a problem and that's exactly what I was thinking about doing. And your right, I enjoy looking at theme as much as driving theme. I like to take one out, put it on the coffee table while watching tv and look at it from time to time.
I was thinking about getting a silver Atomic motor mount, and having my local machinest anodyze it to match.
But right now, I'm working on parts for my Micro-T so I can't afford any Mini-Z stuff at the moment. Just ordered a bunch of Hot-Racing alloy for the tiny truck.
Thanks for the links, I'll have a look at'em.

The tape is used to keep the cap tight and the motor from popping off. Without the tape, the motor would pop out enough to stop the car. So, until I have a better motor mount, the tape stays. I don't like the way it looks, but it works and keeps me running.

So you must not have all the spacers or it's just broken I assume.

Still a nice bunch of red parts.

Just got into Mini-Zs after a break of about 10 year from RC racing

new hobby shop opened in NJ with a miniz hi-bank oval (think bristol) and they run races every thursday... owner handed my a controller and let me burn some laps on a rental unit free of charge and well it worked... walked out with a nascar set, extra body and batteries.

quick paintjob done in a day with testors acrylics and airbrush. gold leaf numbers done the next with 23K german gold leaf

Custom 934 RSR

I applied the decals over the black 934 ASC, then gloss coated. I used tamiya clear which sorta melted some of the decals. Oh well. I'm sticking to testors from here on out.
