That's the one, I wonder if he ever painted the shell? Glad that it went to someone who appreciated it and shared the build. Not sure if I would build it or not. I guess I am lucky to own a couple in various stages of completion/condition.

Looks awesome! Lucky man.

Has he used MCI repro decals? The black/white overlay isn't right on "4wd electric powered racing buggy"

He used the decals from the kit so they should be right

I see what you mean though it looks to be yellow over black on the box lid

Sometimes Nathaneal's decals show the white underlay.

His decals were made from my original scan.

He's painted it well.

Not seen that link before so thanks for sharing. Top man painted the shell nicely. You know what I love about this car? It so looks like a (cant swear..) toy, especially the top and bottom pics. I actually love that fact especially as they performed reasonably well. I think it’s the bright red wheels.

I’m actually going to paint one of my shells the same way. Shame we Tomy fans can’t get hold of a decent replica wing.

Just remembered that cost the guy £40

Apparently I was the sixth person in 40 minutes to ask if he has a BIN price

I have reprimanded myself for being so slow, yet again!

Left front has some damage, wheels look nice, well the ones that have pics. Once again another one without a wing, did people just bin the wing or carelessly lost it.

Lets see what this one goes for then..

Talked to Dennis on Saturday night he did use repro stickers as the kit didn't have them in it so they had to use repro's

If this comes to the UK someone please take a mould of the rear wing , would be great to get some reproductions out there. I would buy a few.

Have thought about bidding on this just for the wing, wheels and tyres. Last time I purchased something from the US the import tax killed me!
