It's been a while since I was last working on the Blaster...but I finally got things under control enough to be able to finish.
I bought someone else's project without having any idea of what I was doing and was planning on putting this Blaster together for my kid who was 8 at the time.
To make a long story shorter, after checking things out and with lots of info from this forum I quickly realized that I needed a few key parts before anything was going to run.
I got the project started and it didn't take long before "life" got in the way and things were put on hold.
A couple weeks ago I was able to get things all in order again and have resumed this project, so I'm finally posting the build log.
Our story begins with a Kijiji posting and the following pics.
I drove up an hour or so from home to check things out armed with some cash. I'm trying to remember how much he was asking for it but I can't right now...I think it was $800
The guy had way too many projects on the go including a Banshee, jetboat, 90s mustang and a racing lawnmower, so after some negotiating I walked away with all the Blaster parts he could find.
