Hi everybody,

Firstable, I wish you an happy new year.

Recently, I got several Schumacher Cat at restored (CAT, Procat, Bosscat) :woot::woot::woot:
Today, I present to you the begining of the restoration of my CAT.

Some pics at the reception of the car

By inserting the pictures, I just realized that I swapped the front and rear hubs :bored::bored::bored:

I expect a body and undertray (from Penguin) to finish the restoration.

Sorry if my English is not perfect :blush:

The boss of rustidesign is the French top driver and he's very cool.


@ Gayo,
Thanks for your observation. The eyes of the tigers.

Hi everybody,

A few weeks later, I finally finished the restoration of my Schumacher CAT.
I'm not very happy with the color of the rims but I would look at it later.
