I will do more basic builds/restos this year I think..
I have a Tamiya Super Astute, a Associated RC10 B1.5, RC10B2, -RC12 and a Kyosho Rampage GP10 in the makings.

Nice! How do you edit your titles? like when u added "done" on this title?

Thanx! You can edit the "headline/subject" in the very first post in a thread.

Oh My !
That came out really well , we have no snow here so pop it in the post and I'll be happy to review it

That finished up great! I can't wait to see the shakedown run, especially one you get it dialed in a bit. Awesome job!

Thank you guys. I really appreciate it!

Though I flirt with the Kyosho enthusiasts out there.
Kyosho Lazer ZX body on the FF10.

Wow that body looks right at home as well.

Sacrilege, blasphemy! Maybe Scr8p would disagree here but I’m ready for an argument.
Kidding aside both look great but the paint on the RC10 shell is just more gorgeous. And “tub” for French people leads to a good laugh as it means penis in slang lol, which lead to a fun comment on Facebook

Hahahaha
Man this is turning into something out of Wayne’s world and Gold member. I love goooold. Schwing!

Oh well, that’s on me
This was the first body I bought for this build and I can agree that the Mirage looks better and I put more effort into it, but as I had this I figured I’ll paint it simple and to some extent resemble the original Kanda Special.
I figured a Kyosho body would work as I have used Optima hubs and uprights as they are easier to get by than original Yokomo parts.

Call me crazy, but for this style of car. I like the Kyosho body shape better.

I agree it does look more at home on that buggy.

Gotta go with first body, and i am a kyosho guy.

HAHAHA this is funny....so combining a Kyosho Chevy with Associated LONG TUB chassis is blasphemy as well? Schwing on Eric...Schwing On!!!

Hi! New to the forum and enjoying reading through so much spectacular stuff, especially this build which is an incredible mix of skill and artistry!

Can I ask Sandkil if you ever got to running this buggy once COVID restrictions were relaxed a bit (and the snow melted!) and if you did, how did it go?

Cheers, Paul
