Thanks, guys! I am very proud of this car and am glad to see it is something to be proud of!
This car has by far the most views in my showroom... I had no idea

Like a 'restomod' ... Love the stance in the 7th picture and the wheel treatment! That is one fine-looking 936!

Subaru impreza ee (extreme edition)

Reminds me of the old Lancia 037 and Tamiya rally cars in concept... They were good-looking like this car, too!

Great-looking buggy with awesome details!

Great to see a beautiful Avante; even better to see it in motion!

'restored'
Grastens
haha just dropped $45 on new universals, so I seem to have my priorities straight!

Never thought i would find one of these...
Lostwave
The Avante could not accommodate a full MSC setup; Tamiya recommended their CPR units as a result, particularly the CPR-P100F as it was out at the time. Quite a find!

A tornado race master just blew in !!

Great find! I would vote for a build, but if you decide to keep it NIB you can always check out larbut's excellent build thread(!) instead at: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=48655

Mean machine

One sweet-looking ride! The front wing has the 'tea-tray' look, but is far better than the 1970s F1 cars that originally sported them.

Welcome to vintage family ;)
Tamiya Era
No bonus parts? I thought the black wheels were some of the bonus parts, and I see them there... Whatever the case, have fun with the build; I know you will!

Super shot: from ebay to my project bin

Better than a deep-fryer... A wallet-fryer! haha congrats on the new acquisition; it looks great!

Bonus parts are eight 1150 metal bearings, which I do not believe is enough to complete the car. Great-looking find!
