Well the 2 Raco GN were completely disassembled and cleaned .They were both put back together the way they were. RACE ready . I made a 2 new Aluminun top plates which replace the old broken kydex. I bought a 4x8 sheet of Kydex and made new bumpers.I also used the kydex to make a new dash and floor pan for the WCM.I still have enough kydex left to make the upper and lower chassis plates for both Raco and spare bumpers.The WCM is also finished.I'll post some pics in the Members Rides. I cant believe I took the Racos completely apart then put it back together with no manual.Very easy cars to work on.
