Hi!
Have always wanted to try one of these classic 1980s kits, but after looking for several months on Evil Bay, they're either hard to find, or sell out instantly!
Looks like it's a basic BT-60 tube. There are some snazzy new repro decals for sale for this kit on Evil Bay, but of course I'd still need the nose cone, nozzle at the other end, and clear plastic tail fin unit.
Any suggestions on if this is feasible? It doesn't have to be a perfect match internally, just cosmetic- if it looks like an MX on the outside and flies, that's fine!
I'm OK with using a slightly different shape clear plastic tail fin, too, for example (since it's clear anyway!), but I still need that stubby, short nose cone, plus the plastic nozzle piece and engine lock nut at the other end.
Do any of you have any suggestions for sourcing those parts? Many thanks!
Best,
Christian
