How many of the aluminum upper chassis plates were made? Is it possible that the one I have above is the long-lost 2nd one?

There's a good question- Bomb-Proof would be the guy to talk to since he made them
Do you have the chassis rails and battery plate too?

Unfortunately, it's just the Upper Chassis and the Chassis Braces, but I'm not sure where the Lower Chassis (Battery Plate) is...

There were several Al top plates made, i believe arounfd a dozen. There were only Two Cf top & bottom plates made. I know because i had the last one. It belong to emaxx jeremy, he was one of the onwers of Bomb proof prouducts. I sold my Al top plate to a member here. I cant remember his name. So i had a ful CF race bomb before i sold it. I believe the Al top plates were numbered. I sold the complete CF Bomb, To a guy on ebay . Turns out he lived only 30 or so miles from me.

Cool, thank you for the information...I would like to build a Full-Blown Supermaxx out of this chassis, using Carbon-Fiber to mill out a nice looking lower-chassis (battery-plate), using either 2.5mm or 3mm. I really like the length of this thing, so it should make a very stable and fast truck!
Does anyone have a lower-chassis that they could take like a straight-down picture of, and maybe give me some length & width dimensions, so that I know about how it looks and can mill my own?
Also, do I need to get permission to make a new lower-chassis that might look similar to the original? I would also like to know if I need permission to mill a new top-plate out of Carbon-Fiber that looks similar to the original, maybe marking it so if it ever gets sold, no one will think it's one of the originals?
Sorry to ask so many questions, I just don't want to step on anyone's toes, especially BPP & its Owners!
Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided...

To my knowledge BPP has not made any rc stuff for years. So i dont think you would be steping on any toes. I would think the monster could make you a bottom plate easy if he had one to copy. I was a flat plate with some holes in it  . Pretty simple to make. But for a exact fit a skilled fabricator's services would be nice. So i would say no on needing permission. Unless you were going to try & sell them,. Then at least a courtesy email or something would be nice, in my opinion. Al so the Original Cf top plates looked nothing like the Al version. It was basically a fstraight piece of CF that connected the bulks, with a couple of places to mount steering servos.
I just checked some old posts. I found who i sold my Al top plate & lexan bottom plate to. His use name is squeeforever. He was or is a mad here at one time. He may still have the lexan lower plate. Maybe he would sell it if he still has it. Then you couls copy it or have mike copy it for you.
I found a old pic on the Ue forum of a CF racebombg. I cant copy the pic. But here is a link to the link the thread. You need to be a member to view it thou. That the best i can do. If your not a member there. I'll send you a pm with my log in info so you can view it.
