description  Just swapped my Turbo Optima MID SE for this. I've waited years to get one and can't wait to pull it apart and rebuild it. Massive thanks to Tamiyoman for the trade and the rest of the bits i needed for the Avante, cheers mate hope you're happy with the Optima! The body is in great condition, i just need a new roof for it and a different colour. I have big plans for this car which will take a while to complete. Thanks for looking!! UPDATE Finally started rebuilding my SRB runner. I recently traded with KEV THE REV the Rough Rider body for one of his machined front body posts. For the steering i was thinking of using a direct setup aka F103 style. I bought 3racing GB01 shocks but may change the springs for something harder. The Blitzer Beetle body will be going off for a special paint scheme soon and i should have the chassis finished in the next couple of weeks, i just need 3mm Stainless grub screws, an RCSCREWZ stainless screw kit is on its way from America and some other pieces i've ordered. I've bought new Buggy Champ parts to make the build easier (wheels,tires and rear cage). I've noticed that the body doesn't quite match the wheel base of the chassis so i'll look into that. Just want to say thanks to everyone that has given my inspiration to finish this model. Thanks for looking and any comments/tips are more than welcome!!
