Nutech body for my xb

[cordy]

I needed a new body for my xb so I got a nutech thunderbolt 2 body,it fit`s with a little triming.I used yellow metal flake on a yellow base,black lace with flaming orange panels. The grim reaper was put on with lexan picture glue.The n9wd on the nose is my amateur radio call sign. I used a passche single action air brush, spraying at 12-20 psi depending on the verosity of the paint. I hope I did redcat and my xb proud.

Nice job Cordy! how long have you been working on it?

 

[cordy]

Three days,1st day trimed the body and washed and scrubed the body with soap and scotch pad,and put on the grim reaper. 2nd day painted the black and orange panels. 3rd day sprayed the metal flake and base yellow when dryed put on the lettering and decals.The body costs$89 +shipping = $98.66 to my door in brookfield 1day delivery by fed ex home dilivery.Mind you the body does not come with window mask or any decals.Trim the rear of the body so the factory cut outs for the nose will fit over the shocks. I made the body posts out of 5/16th`s aluminum tubeing available at your local hobby shop.
