Cougar 2 project

[Retro RC]

Ok guys here is the start of project number1 for me my original cougar.

I bought this car back in 1990 when they first came out and has raced in many forms in its life including a shotgun conversion for a while. It had the long front shock tower conversion before that, and ended as it is now with MMS gear box works rear arms and hubs, ball raced steering, version 1 slipper, proto type cougar 2 shock towers and front arms.

I also have a cougar 2 team car on its way from the UK atm.

I'm going to be building 2 buggies a shelfer and a runner. The shelter will be basically a new build to full works spec..... Only need roller or ball raced drive shafts to have it complete, and the runner will be a modded team car.

I'll also be building a nib bosscat works but that's another thread to come

Look forward to you feedback and any hints suggestion etc

I'm sure if you beat your nuts hard enough they would turn purple

Awesome project Adrian. I do have one small suggestion......send it to me
Where on earth did you find a NIB Bosscat works? I'm pretty sure Wayne had one but I don't know whatever happened to it.....or any of his other stuff for that matter.

Funny you should mention Waynes stuff, I have a decent lead on the stash.....


Woooooo can't wait to get my mitts on this Cougar to measure up! (and the Bosscat too)

I got lucky john, found it on Aussie eBay was missing the chassis battery straps and sticker set, I've got a fibrelyte chassis and battery straps just can't find the sticker set.......yet, I will be building it up as it's not a complete original set and the fact I got it so cheap helps too
