This is the re-re bodyset on my F104 pro chassis with the front end of the F104W. The body has some professonally printed Gitanes stickers and a Goodwood number sticker. The whole body was covered in clear and painted at the same time as the original 58010 NewBuilt. The chassis has the usual Pro options and I already added a alu motor mount. The motor is a Tamiya 12 Brushless and the receiver is 2,4Gh Spectrum. For the wheels the original tires are no use on my carpettrack so I used foam. The rear are F103 tires and the front are F103 trimmed to a smaller diametre. I had the idea to make some repro duplo's so I painted the centre of the tires grey. Looked very good but on my track had too little grip. For running I replaced them with the same tires without the grey centre. The rear wing was strengthend a bit with carbonfibre because I going to run this hard on my track. And I already did and it handles great! Hope you like it

the front is the F104W the duplo's

@Tyboart. The bodyset without tabaco logo was limited released at a Tamiya Fair only in limited edition. The alu wing parts are not in the re-re also. The chassis is a F104pro so the total is not in kit form.
