Building a RR/Series hybrid
« on: May 17, 2005, 21:36:10 »
I'm looking at a cheap rangie on thursday thats got (so i'm told) a good chassis, running gear etc. I'd love to build myself a nice series hybrid similar to LRM's TOP100.

Has anyone on here built themselves one? wheres the best place to get a bulkhead and panels from? what money should i be paying? or am i better off trying to find a series and rob it blind?

Answers on a postcard and much appreciated

Yep, built a hybrid 3 years ago.

Have a look at www.madbadgers.freeserve.co.uk and look at the hybrid section.

Its way out of date and a few links broken but most of its there.
