1/5 Scale 2wd Gas Onroad Touring Car

What your looking at is a new full build from the ground up of a 1/5 scale 2WD touring car. There was no base car to start with, all parts were in my personal collection bins as just single parts, even the stainless hardware you see throughout was bought in bulk separately. I started this project in January 2023 and have been working on it on and off ever since until completion in July 2023. No costs were spared on this as well as the countless hours spent on assembly, shimming, adjustments etc. Based on the FG Sportsline 04-08 platform, this is a very solid car. Nicely laid out design and easy to maintain.
