you could try modelspot.com its in the uk i know @ one point all they stocked car wise was cen stuff racks of it, & no longer have them in there but good chance the guys have it boxed up in there stores.

lol not seen him for few mths , yes same here usally does say out of stock & expected back instock date. i only payed cause instock just guess was not my lucky day. i see there site says away till july but date wrong when they went lol guess typo error. also brought two body sets years ago from another well know shop cost me over £80 & waited mths for them ended with a refund, why they do it i just guess its get the funds & bulk buy to get better discounts or cheaper shipping, i guess its gonna be back to buying from hk even if costs more atleast you get items in 3/4 days well was last time i brought from hk
PLEASE ALL YOU ONLINE HOBBY SHOPS HAVE A STOCK INDICATOR OR ATLEAST IF YOU HAVE ONE GET SOMEONE TO CHECK IT DAILY & UPDATE IT LOL

Hi Twinset
Well showed in stock & i even payed for express del or quicker del as you get 3 choices in there checkout, i got no reply off them in emails so thought im a tc member so are they so posted in there part was i not right doing that then ? i work silly hrs @ work running 150 rental houses aswell as priv jobs coming out my ears so dont get chance to stop to make a call so when i got home for 5 mins i posted on there part, i got a call within 20 mins or so saying sorry they have comp issues plus they are waiting on a back order, sorrys they showing instock & sorry carnt do anythink we are closing the shop for two wks due to hols. so thought by posting this on here people are not in the same boat as me ordering parts that are not instock or waiting for parts that they wont get as there away.

Hi richard not heard of any other units other than a guy in the states making his own years ago think it was in scale4x4 forum or another forum i used back when i had trucks.
regards the alloy crossmembers in opinion its just more added weight or bling lol, but id just stick with stock items you can allways spray them to look better.

Hi im sure the servonaut m20+ is an esc / lighting kits all in one plus 7.2v & 12v for sound you will need the smt. ive ready on sevonaut web sometime back you can use from 3channel upto 7 most use futaba rx & tx unless you got buckets of cash for a full servonaut setup.
if you google servonaut m20+ you should get a better idea,
if your uk give dirtydan an email @ orandadesign@aol.com im sure he can sort you a setup or advise you

There a great budget crawler, std with 9kg steering servo , 2,4 ghz radio / battery & charger included, ive had two of these since they came out my bro bashes the 1st one std with no mods & i built the other in to a scale truck with our own made chasis rails, you must have had a faulty one to brake a rear prop joint there better than the honcho std props,
have fun with it once you get the part, maybe worth giving hpi & call or email see if you can get the bit free as it must have been @ fault to pop so soon.

Hi andy
you can just use warm soapy water with 1200 or 400 grade wet & dry paper to take the shine off before painting or either prime 1st & re-flat after before top coat goes on,
or use the camel yellow with light dust coats @ 1st to base before you hit it with a few wet coat of paint, if not painting in warm conditions get a big cardboard box & make a paint booth warm paint for moe in warm water dry can after lol & allways handy to borrow the mrs hair dryer lol incase you get it to wet & dont want paint running , i usally warm bodys 1st just helps paint cure little quicker, just dont hold dryer to close just move in motions over painted body. just how i do them in winter,
as its an abs body you can get good results using automotive rattle cans from halfords etc most good car shops will mix your paint to your spec etc,
good luck painting the clod,
you could allways strip the old paint off with brake fliud , or if have a good read of other posts theres a few diffrent products on the market for stripping rc abs shells, please dont use nitromorse it will melt the shell, ive had good results with rc nitro fuel but high % nitro fuel like 20% +
