Finally got around to finishing this one, Quite early model (mostly the shocks differ from later models) Has graphite shock towers and wide front end kit otherwise all standard with repop body. :D

It's Tamiya white on the bulkhead cap and parma white on the body but looking at the pics the cap looks more yellow than the body which I would have thought would be the other way around as Tamiya white is usually very white :?

You've done a very nice job on that one , I far prefer to see them fully ready to go with electronics installed , a bare roller can look good but a nice clean install is very difficult , well done .

Wow, beauty!
I agree on the electronics, nice job on installing them and keeping everything neat. I struggle to do that on my complete cars.

Who's 'repop' body did you go with and it looks like the undertray and body fit nice. Very clean, I vote to put it on monthly ride as well.

The body was a Mr Lexan when he was doing them but I think oldrc might have those molds now and I selling them again? They fit together well but you will have to shave a small amount off the chassis at the widest point for the undertray to fit properly.
