Yes, it's vintage. It's just a rebodied Raider. The correct body is the one on the right and it shouldn't have that extra middle shock on the front end.

The body you speak of is from a Schumacher Cougar2000. They dont make them any more so good luck tracking one of these down now days. My good friend Jeroen from over at the Schumacher forum had Schumacher make up a batch from the old molds. He may have a couple left.

I nicked the picture from the auction cause the guy did an awesome improvement to the looks by using the shum shell.
And he also used the original bomber decals in a way that makes the shum shell come out even better.
