Looks like they made a hpi 2 speed fit it. Weird. As far as I can tell they are just run of the mill optima mids, not SE cause no platinum shocks.should have gear diffs and standard dog bones.

I haven´t seen the red input gear before.
Spread all the parts out on the table and let´s see some pictures.

I think the driver doll is for the Optima MkI not the mid.
Unharmed it´s a real gem for the "Optimaniacs"

What a great score you got.

Looks to be a mixed lot with mostly Mid parts.

I see some original Optima arms too if I'm correct. Wierd as it's Mid chassis.

Ultima bits are a bonus. Pitty no cage for the Ultima hey.

The Mids are such a nice buggy. My Favourite of all Kyosho's except the Ugly Custom Special :roll:

You've got half a blue alloy Super/Pure ten steering set in there :? as well as some alloy ltd. blue standoffs, a pureten GP Mk.II plastic front shock tower and alloy motor mount plate. There's some HPI bits too, but most is Optima, Optima MID, and Ultima.
