mastino 1085 Posted November 1, 2015 Few weeks ago I won in an auction, a Tamiya Lancia Delta , 58117 kit. These initial conditions, wheels and tires in bad condition due the age, some screws lost, a few screws a bit fanciful. Overall nothing irreparable, mechanics must have been little used. The body is unwatchable ... After having completely disassembled the model, yesterday I started to clean and reassemble everything. Rear ball diff refurbished and reinstalled Same for the gear diff on front In the same time I replaced the bushings with bearings Both completed front knuckles and C-Hub Tamiya's CVA trick or treat Now, new body and sticker, tires and wheels and read bumper required... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Truck Norris 2237 Posted November 1, 2015 For the stickers if you get 9494036 these have the additional Lancia specific cockpit ones. The sheet is for the nitro model but it's the same as the electric cars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
