My new mk2 rc

Postby MinorMatt » Fri Oct 13, 2017 8:24 pm

I've been keeping it quiet on purpose, but a few months ago I bought a mk2 transit shell.

Its been squirreled away out of sight whilst I worked out what I was going to do with it.

Ebay has been kind this week, and I have worked out what I am going to do... some chassis mods and fabrication will be required, a bit of bodywork and a bit of paint and I will have a mk2 shell with an electric drive chain. Batteries and controllers are sourced - nothing stopping me now :)

These transit fruitcakes are suffering from trauma based mind control bjt so you cannot reason with them, what it needs is a brushless electric motor----i can sell these to any of these nutjobs, esp. mike who sneers at vans over 2 years old..

Ha I think not that a transit fruitcake will know what a brushless electric motor is
I am sure he will be happy with an old wiper motor and a king dick spanner
