M-Chassis! I love it! ..and it was time to build it one :-) and MELIANW (ebay) gave me a really good deal, thanks Ian! Here my Fiat Abarth 1000 in two versions. The box-art and one inspired to my dad`s car, red! My dad had this model in 1965, I was just two yrs old! Tha M05 chassis with renforced differential gear and hollows carbon shafts is powered by a classic, reliable Tamiya Sport Tuned, TEU-104 ESC and front CVA`s universal shaft, Futaba servo,
stainless screws under the chassis and fully ball raced (obviously). Thanks for looking ;-)

Thank you Steve! The only problem is that some decals on the 1000 abarth bodyshell are keep going to peel off
Cheers

Cheers RallyeBaz and TIMECMDR! I like the `posh` grey bodyshell but to be honest I love the red one which was `invented` without many decals available. The front lights covers are `Lego`!
