Optima Mid Turbo Parts Help Required Please
 
I am in the process of restoring my optima Mid Turbo, I have been able to source several NIP parts, but I'm struggling to get hold of the following bits. If anyone has any of the following or knows of anywhere I can get them could you please let me know.
The parts I require, either genuine or repro are:
OT-84 front gear box case.
OT-93 bumper.
OT-95 Plate set.
OT-98 Battery holder set.
OT-106 Body.
OT-107 Wing.
OT-112 screw set.
OT-90 wheels.
OTW-1 stabilizer set (anti roll bars)
Any help would be appreciated.
Barry.

OT-84. Check ebay.
OT-93. GOOD LUCK! Olli4ke on this forum has some...but it won't be cheap!
OT-106/107. Check out MarwanRC (google/ebay shop). Excellent repros and decals.
OTW-1. Check out VintageKyosho on Ebay. They do have a stabiliser set which you can adapt.

Cheers Naushad,
I'll try and find MarwanRC. Am I right in thinking they do repro bumpers too?
I've been searching ebay for the gearbox case but nothing yet :(
I've just got back from grabbing a load of bits from VintageKyosho's as he lives near me. Do you know which stabiliser set you adapted to fit?
Cheers
Barry.

Marwan doesn't do repro bumpers present...someone on RC10talk.com does.

Goes by the name of SANDSUPERSTORE.

OT-54 is the stabiliser set I used. Need to cut some bit from the front bar...you'll know what I mean when you see it.

If you are wanting only NIP parts expect a long wait and high prices, and make sure you do worldwide searches on ebay. Expect to pay £30-50 for a NIP genuine bumper!

Marwan Al Nusif creates great bodies and stickers, his website can be found here http://www.marwanrc.com/category.sc?categoryId=2 and has a wider range and cheaper prices than ebay.
