Mabbs Build

[airforceone]

All the parts needed to fit it exactly the same as Jon has should be in the kit.
I ordered a similar one from Venhill, not braided just a normal PVC one but it had all the
necessary attachments.

If you don't have them I would contact Venhill.

Thanks guys.

I looked, and looked, and looked, and looked again.

Turns out all I saw was the name brands and didn't see the very one I wanted.

Basically I had a "boys look".

I tell you - hours I looked

Fully braided accelerator cable installed and awaiting other end to connect too

Hi Jon,

Did you buy the Venhill accelerator cable ready made / made to measure / a pile of parts?

Can't seem to see a made up one on the Venhill site but also can't find the individual parts either

Now if I had a motorbike ...........

Sorry not been on here for a while, looks like you have got the answers you were looking for !!

ATB,

Jon

Just looking through the build an pics - what a great experience is was to build and drive the car - I do miss it and can't wait to do another once I have stopped on the house work !!

Mabbs sold his car ages ago, it was doing the rounds at some of the car shows and I think RTR had
it at one point but no idea where it is now.

Hi,

I was the lucky one to buy Mabbs Rocket back in 2012, I still have it although I've not used for the last 3 years!!

RTR have used it at some of the shows over the last few years.

I am planning to dust it off very soon and have some fun in it this year

Cheers
John

Definitely post on this thread, I like a good sequel, I've had this bookmarked since I got my kit in 2013 :-)

Exo Sports Cars have had the good fortune to have had use of this car at several shows of late but It's now back with Tolly so hopefully it will be hitting the streets again shortly.
