Guest Posted March 30, 2019 Hey. I am restoring a vanquish, which I might sell. Anyway the body is a mess. I can't find a replacement, so does anyone know what else might fit (avant, egress maybe?). Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
graemevw 821 Posted March 30, 2019 Id get a repro if i were you. Especially if you want to sell it. Keep it looking like a vanquish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted March 30, 2019 The question is, at what point do I stop buying replacement parts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Superluminal 3730 Posted March 30, 2019 The second that you finish hunting for that final rare expensive part, then they re-release it and theres a glut of bits everywhere. About then. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You either spend the money to get it fixed and put it down to the cost of the hobby, or you sell it as it is to try and not loose money. Its either a hobby, or a profit making exercise. What's your motivation? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

About then. Ill soon be hunting for vanquish parts too, mine should arrive mid week. I for one would love it if the re released it even if ive already finished the build. At least i could then run it with slightly less worry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What's your motivation? I got it as part of a larger lot with the idea of just selling it on as it doesn't fit my touring car collection. However now I have it I kind of want to keep it and the more parts I buy the less point there is in selling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baddon 860 Posted March 31, 2019 TBG eBay shop is closed BUT their new web site should be opening shortly. In the mean time you can contact them using the link on the MCI site. Link attached. Its where I got most of my bodies (TBG) and decals from MCI. including for my Vanquish which I still have to do. I have a SuperShot and HotShot and a Saint Dragon to finish first though.....
