It was great to see it out running around just like it would have been back in the day!!! It looks great and ran really well, even with the tired old motor in it!! A sport tuned it really going to perk it up and of course roll it a time or two!! Have fun with it and I am glad you were able to find some good replacements for the shock mount!

That would have defeated the purpose of a retro build. I sourced all the vintage electronics cause I wanted a Blackfoot like I had as a kid. Now I may eventually get a 2016 reissue and fo that with modern electronics, but I wanted this as close to my original Blackfoot as possible but with a few custom touches
