Hey guys!
I just recently joined TamiyaBase after I scored a lot of 4 vintage cars on eBay and needed some manuals and information. Originally I was browsing for some parts for my almost stock Bush Devil that I got myself in '93.
I'm 40, from northern Germany, and decided to look for the Bush Devil on my mom's attic during the first lockdown since I knew it still had to be somewhere and there was not much else to do.
After some cleanup, bearings, ESC, fresh batteries and a new silver can it ran like new. Just had to replace the front bumper mount since that is a known issue with that model. Breaks as soon as you hit something. May have to look for some 3D printed spares.
I still have some NOS spare parts for the Devil but after I was able to score a King Blackfoot together with some other cars I decided I might as well rebuild and customize the KBF and keep the Bush Devil on the shelf. May add some photos later.
I'll start a rebuild and customize thread for my KBF and the other cars that were in the lot.
Cheers guys!
