bue/white
This truly is the holy grail. I see many 'new built' (especially on Ebay) with questionable parts; wheels from re-issues that are different(!!), wrong decals, missing mirrors or other parts, non original exhaust or bumper, etc. Some even use a Monster Beetle body!! To each his own but I don't like that. This new built is all original and all complete. Built from the box. Painted by a pro with off course all original decals. Total stunner!!
I was one of the first collectors of vintage Tamiya in NL and had quite some lucky buys in the early days. Now it's impossible to find a bargain as so many are looking for vintage Tamiya. This SS came in one of my luckiest buys. I bought 3-4 new built SRB's and loads of parts from a guy who did not know the value and thought it was old crap he bought from a bust RC shop. I got it almost for free. There were 7-8 new black bumpers included!!! I kept what I needed and sold the rest on Ebay. Typischdesign bought 2 black bumpers at US$180 each when the Dollar was still more then Euro!!
