yes you definitely can clear coat those things. theres a coating shop called extreme coatings between my house and where i work i pass twice a day. they have some badass coatings and they do clear.
i actually just went thru the site. kind of a lame site, but the shop is badass, and the owner alan is a real nice guy. they do real nice stuff for, like, turbonetics (i think he said), and speedway to name a few.
The 73 is lookin real sick. I started a 5" bd 76 b1600 build about 5 months ago. They are the best minis ever. Can't wait to check out after the winter. Question... how'd u get the steering to work after the bd for urs? It's becoming a problem for mine.
