I think I remember seeing Neil run a silver or chrome body on his B4 a good way in the past..
Does anyone have a photo or link they could throw me?

I think it may be best if I burn a DVD as we took your car back to the studio and did some pics here....

My photos from that event total 550MB!!!

Is that a B3X?? Looks like a cross between B3 and B4 - Dave Duggan i think was the first to run Silver body and a black wing, i used to think it looked ace but Neil's car looks terrible in that pic :lol:

Nick, I believe you are right, I think there were 3 B3x's racing there.

Do you remember that other shell Neil used to have when he was racing a B3 and a Predator that had silver on? It was about 1999 and his shell was silver and then had purple, red, orange and yellow flames... it was really smart, when I saw the title of this thread I wondered if that was the shell that was being searched for, but that shell design was long before B4 time. I know he had that shell design at the 1999 juniors.

i loved that shell your talking about Tom, i had craig harris copy the design for my pred but changed the silver to blue.

he had Orion on the wing and load of little stickers around it at an angle.

If you run a silver body, you should only run black decals (and wheels if you can)

the simple silver was the one I was looking for but I'd love to see a pic of the other paint scheme.

Yeah I remember it well - He then went to the Red/Yellow and white that we know today, which i think if you ask Bradders was something he came up with and begged Neil not to copy haha :lol:
