New look for a Silver bullet

[Diegoboy]

I recently acquired this Graupner Silver Bullet from Wayne (goldendesign04)In a trade that was a good deal for both of us..



Anyway, I pulled the motor mount from her because it was twisted away from the drive line ever so slightly, and mounted in the center. The drive line is offset to the right on her.
There was no stuffing tube, just the teflon liner siliconed to the exit hole. I have corrected all the issues, and filled both sponsons with 2 part foam.
I am not done with this boat, I still need...
a 5mm to 3/16 flex hex coupler
a .130 3/16 stub shaft (I have the flex cable, just not the shaft)

I have a paint scheme in my head, and I couldn't wait to see what it'll look like. So, I impatiently painted only the right sponson to have a look see. Here is the right sponson.



The tub will be blue with a yellow front...

Thats a great paint job! Is the water drops a graphic or paint?

[Doby]

Really nice, will be easier to see than the silver as well >

[Diegoboy]

Thanks guys! The graphics are decals I picked up fropm HT-USA. I cut them out to eliminate the clear background as much as possible.
