          I didn't find much of anything in orig pics that were good enough to see any details. I mostly found rc race pictures on ERCU, Classic Thunder and RC Unlimiteds 1/8th scale

            Been a while since I updated this thread but got to put the hardware on only problem was I needed to drill a new mounting hole for the strut bracket as I wanted to get the strut closer to the transom so the tube would go further into the strut. and I cant remember what size I taped the backing plate to mount the turn fin bracket. Guess I should have made notes on that part. But happy with the progress.
