Found this on ebay and decided to pick it up. My first Tamiya on road car. I have an old 10 turn reedy motor for it. I plan on using it as a drifter. I bought a Nissan 180SX Type X body for it. I drive a 240sx (same car) and will be doing the same Nissan paint color to match. http://i1114.photobucke...

The arms are dyed. Im putting them back on. The PO dyed the rears black.
Im painting the shock towers hot pink to match the nose plate i have for it also.

Threw this together.

The bidding got dirty at the end. Went from $50 to over $100 in the last minute or two of the auction. I wasnt letting this one get away and get striped for parts. I have a hot pink nose plate for it too.

Just got this in the mail.

2 vintage esc, the novak still has thebox with all accessories.
Skinny front wheels and tires. And the OG 3 Piece.
Also had what I think is either a sprint car or sand rail chassis.

Thanks, i do a lot of driving at night so it helps me to keep an eye on it. M&M just rebuilt thier track so im looking foreward to racing a bit. The light bar came off a Traxas Ken Block Gymkhana car i bought from a friend. $50 for the car and everything he had for it.

Swapped out to some wheels that came on a truck i bought. I also had some spare parts laying around. Velinion 380 4000kv brushless and speed control. Its faster than the 27t brushed motor i had on it

Added a new servo and dyed the 3 piece wheels and rear RPM arms black. I used duplicolor matte black spray intende...
