This is now the most modified M Chassis car that I own!! It started off with a Standard Assetto Corse kit with a big pile of Tamiya and 3Racing hop ups. It would take a long time to list all of the parts hence the first picture which gives you an idea of the amount of non-standard parts used in this build. I hardly followed the Tamiya instructions due to most parts not being used. It was difficult at times having to follow the small scraps of paper that come with the hop up parts!! It was tough but a very enjoyable build and the finished product was worth the effort. I left the windows clear rather than the kit standard 'black out' window decals.

From This.............. To This with lots of this!!!

What a fine M-chassis you have. And the body finish is perfect.
What do the braces between the body posts? Is it to make the body more stable?

That is uber-cool. I love this chassis - so much fun to be had, even with a silvercan. Yours looks utterly fantastic!
