Hmmm, called this an Avante cos that is mainly what it is! Avante body, wheels, gearboxes. Avante 2001 suspension arms and parts of steering (Avante stabilizer bars). Unknown rear wing support. Looks to be a very well made aluminium chassis ( almost exact copy of the 2001). Aluminium front shock mount. Avante 2001 hop up shocks all round, driveshafts are the ones with the universal joints all round, not just the front. Runs a RS 540 SH motor, goes well, the shocks are nice. The mounts for the rear arms are a combination of Avante and 2001! It seems to be 1 cm longer than the original Avante (the body has a mounting hole cut 1 cm behind the original to make it fit).
Any one any ideas where the chassis comes from or is it home made?

Nice looking chassis! BTW That rear shock tower is a vanquish I believe? The Avante2001 had the rear shocks mounted behind the rear axles, the vanquish has them mounted like that ahead of the axle line. Rear wing mount could also be vanquish? The avante shock towers were also FRP not plastic. So you actually have an 'Avanquish2001'
