went to the market today, found this sat on someones stall got the price down a bit and then bang another car for the collection. on first inspection i didn't recognise the car, the chassis or anything and the chap selling it said it was a ford chassis? sound chap though say's he has another car which i am going to see at a later date.
this car is proper nice the motor being right at the front is a bit wierd but it works, the car is sound runs fine, fast little thing body needs some tlc but its all good.

i like the size not to big not to small tidy chassis needs a nose job all i got, can't complain for the price

It is indeed a TA03F-S, the S standing for Short bathtub chassis. Very nice and good in the corners the short wheelbase chassis. Good find.

i've just been running the car and when switching from forward to reverse it makes a weird clicking noise, sounds like the belt is slipping, but its not? any suggestions before i rip it apart, cheers
