Finally I'm done with the painting job using the airbrush. Two days that I let the body sit at my garrage for curing. Parma water based paint doesn't cure quickly like laquer and acrylic paints so I guess two days is enough. Now it's time to mount the body on the truck.
 
I like it!! OOohh Baby! I have the same body but looking at yours, you got it sitting much lower than mine and I like that. I have the MT tires on mine and I think that I don't have enough clearance to lower it more. Looks great !
 
Yes, mt tires are too large to accommodate for this kind of body. It needs enough trimming to clear the fender from the tires. Thanks for liking it.
 
hello,


What's the reference of wheels and olso the reference ; 4 HPI Hexes and 4 hex nuts.


The hexes of my MT is 22 mm, and the wheels HPI is 24 mm. can not mount the wheels HPI.

Thank you guys for all your comments. I did it hard as a newbie, the most dificult part was doing the masking and I found some imperfections after peeling off the mask. I just retouched it with my hobby bristle brush and it works good.

I am using the rear hpi hex hubs. It will fit in your redcat, your wheel nuts you can still use your stock nuts. The wheels I'm using the rear desperado wheels by Proline. It is also for the hpi 5b or 5t.


Here are the links we're using in the U.S. for you to picture it out.

Yes you're right, as of this time it's still sitting in my garrage I'm still using the old body . I'm waiting for the heat shield that I oredered from amazon to protect the body. My cpi pipe manifold has a 3/4 of an inch clearance from the top of the body.
