Looks nice, very retro.
The old 'Schumacher' decal is being reproduced as we speak by a friend just hold on there
Whats Keiths repro body like, does it come with the spoiler? I couldn't see it list in his e pay shop or am I missing something?

Lovely car! I think the Kamtec repro looks great! I have one of the Schumacher re-run shells and yours looks every bit a good
For decals, speak to Jimmy Storey of oOple, he repros the decals.

Hi Jimbo, the bodies are not yet for sale, Keith offered me this one as aprototype for testing & review. Quality is superb.

that's awesome, and I agree Chrome wheels are the way to go !
I am just starting my re-build, and it's getting chrome wheels, and thanks to James I have a Schumacher body just waiting to get cut and painted !
oh, and James if you read this, I'd take a decal too !!

BTW: i can recommend the reedy 3600 wolfpacks, as they are quite small in diameter and fit the schumacher battery trays etc...
