well as far as the resto its perfect, but as far as the frt/rear tires not really spot on. i changed the rears for proline fuzzie pro82 tires they look more like the pic. iam working on finding the frts and the orion 1700 batteries.

well now i know the rear body mount was also a one off part so i replaced the stock one with a vintage parma mount with small bushing to replicate the front one. looks pretty close :)

I swear I've seen short body posts exactly like that from Parma on ebay. I tried searching but couldn't find any for sale.

Nice work on all the small details. :D

^ Not quite. The ones I saw were short and looked just like the ones shown on the cars. They may have been model-specific, maybe for an RC12 or similar.

well i found a really close match they are proline 4wd front fuzzie tires they also say 1993-1994 ifmar world champs on the box so they are the same time period. they look really close! :D i know Vintagemishal put a lot of time making those front tires, but they were just too small and really hurt the look of the car.

Wow this is just amazing! Eustace is a class act - I had an issue once with something I bought and emailed the company. He then called me personally and sent out a replacement, no questions asked! Great guy - I will buy more of their stuff just because of him.
