The Astute is an interesting car. I am still restoring mine. Finally found an original body and an original decal set. Still need some smaller parts, rear tires and rear hi caps to complete it. I'll be posting about it soon.

Na, hi caps are listed as a hop up in the Astute manual. As mine restoration project came without shocks and i had a set of original hicap minis complete and rear housings, i decided to put those on directly rather than buy yellow CVA's seperately.
