Well I thought I'd start a thread for SC8 conversions.
Mine is underway and should be completed in a week.
Take a look at the pictures and you can see all I have done is remove the engine and electronics.
Also if you look at the last picture, you can see that I installed window screen with a hot glue gun from the inside of the body to give a more scale appearance.
