Rory Culls 93 worlds car

[daz75]

The pic at the world's also has white shock towers

[Peakey]

It's definitely got the white cap on but it's also running the black rear tower there's a better pic here



As for rebuilding that will take some planing and searching I think but it will never get raced again to be fair

Do you know I've never seen the Model Cars Magazine report of the 93 Worlds... that's a great scan & awesome to see that image of Craig's WCS from the event... so much emphisis was put on Masami's Worlds winning car that it seems finding images of any of the others are so few & far between.

Its quite clear that the rear tower on Rory's car was/is black but the rear upper link connection looks to me, to be the std 93WCS arrangement

[Peakey]

You've got better eyes than me Dan! I can't make the ZD-30 camber link but I can see there's nothing over the bulkhead cap.
From looking at the cars in the artical most of the WCS's had standard front ends the most change I can see it carbon front towers but it seems to be the rears that have been modded so they may of been struggling to get the rear sorted?

[daz75]

Wonder if mine has loads of carbon on it due to being a ex team drivers car or something would love to know who my dad bought it off at the time assuming it was second hand

It would help if you found some pics of yours from when you had it if you could find some. If it was second hand maybe it came with another shell?

[daz75]

Was a long time ago mate not sure about photos don't remember a different shell either lol

[Peakey]

I took the car out the garage the other night and then decided to do a little with it. So after a lot of thought I just decided to give it a little tidy up and start to rebuild it the main problem I can see I'm going to have is the M2 slipper so if anyone has s M2 slipper plate then that would be a great help.



Modded rear hub


Luckily the lightweight rear diff is in



So it's had a little clean and tidy up


Improvised front diff for now till I find the correct one



No more rusty shafts or roll bar


That's as far as I got for now but if anyone has a M2 slipper plate or could point me in the direction of one would be a great help, or if they made a M2 hardened gear like they did with the M3 that's changable that would be perfect. The same if anyone has a M2 lightweight WCS front diff knocking around (I know massive long shot but worth a try)

[DanB4]

I had all that mate remember all NIP, pretty much gave it away!

I used Autosol buddy and ran the driveshafts and wing mounts in a drill

Buddy,

M2 spur adapter here..

[Dadio]

thats cleaning up nicely ,caustic soda also takes the oxide of aluminium but don't leave the parts in too long as it will eat them eventually ,good for bits you can't spin up in a chuck to polish ,wire wool's good too.

Whats good for cleaning black plastic?

For plastics you can start with trying a dishwasher ,obvoiusly not on lexan/polycarbonate or anything electrical though ,put the parts in the cutlery tray when the wife's out .
