Thanks gents, I doubt I would have tried another color scheme w/ an original Super Champ body set however w/ Fighting Buggy re-re you can take some chances. Debating on next color/combo as I have 3 more bodies to experiment with.

Hello Mongoose1983, I'm sorry but I don't remember? I actually built the body in 2011. Maybe TS45 Pearl White?

My 2nd tamiya i ever owned
Gabriel412
Good question Ben, my Dad got me the tires right around the time he gave me the car...like 1986? I rarely used the RR tires/wheels so that's all I have left today...the original SC tires/wheels were completely worn away...:) My favorite car of all time.

My original wild one - i built in 2014
Gabriel412
I agree, I like the FAV body panels better however I always 'try' and make the first Tamiya model I make to the box art. I say 'try' because my painting abilities are not the best...lol.

Orange hopped-up boomerang
Gabriel412
LOL, This Boomerang and the Terra Scorcher were both built by a gentleman in Boston area - he did some amazing work - actually wish I would not have sold them! The Dyna Storm was his work too.

I agree 100%! Still don't understand why Grasshopper & Hornet Hop-Up's don't exist from Tamiya...as I bet these are Top 5 sellers annually.

Txt-2 - box art w/ upgrades
Gabriel412
Thanks my friend! I think the rear servo mount kit came from Xtreme Racing. I have never ran this truck but I have an alternate TXT-2 that I drive and the shocks did make a difference as the upgraded units made it less bouncy. Way overpriced though!
