Great build. If only you had a scan of the decals - so I can imitate... ;)

Sorry Edou, no scan I'm afraid. It took 2 sets to get these ones right :(

Are they not available anymore?

They seem to have gotten rarer. Which makes sellers pop up that see the 'opportunity' and dare ask 100+ euro. :sick:

Quick update to this thread.

I've now managed to aquire a Top Force runner :)

Gonna strip it down and rebuild it, I've already swapped the evo body + wheels over :D

Found that it had a broken Universal shaft, so had to order a new one.

Few screws missing or wrong ones used, not a great deal needs doing, I could fit a sneaky upgrade here or there I suppose, so I thought I might as well update this thread to document the rebuild ;)

As it sits now, wheels on, next to TFE body.



Probably won't look much different once it's finished, just a bit cleaner :)

Looks pretty sound to me :y:

A good price though? Tamiya prices seem to be very volatile ATM - either "bargain" or "ouch!" :S
