My 1st Tamiya

As this is my 1st entry into my showroom I thought it only seemed fitting for it to be my 1st ever Tamiya car. This was bought for me for Christmas 1988 & it was well used for a number of years but never abused then left in a box till a few years back when I decided to restore it to a runner. I've been slowly collecting parts along with more Tamiya projects & parts for those. I would say 90% of it is now new with only a few original parts remaining those being the Bodyshell ( Hand painted by an 11yr old me ), Technigold motor and rear skid plate, the wheels tyres & main chassis were replaced by me around the early 90's and only lightly used I also got rid of the MSC as I always had problems with it and got hold of a Futaba ESC . I have a NIB bodyset for it which I bought around 6yrs ago from ebay but I cant bring myself to cut & paint it.
