Kyosho Optima Mid vintage parts
 
Hi,

I got a Kyosho Optima Mid from someone at the track yesterday.
I really want to restore the car in its original shape, since he ran the car for several races, there are some scratches on it, the shock bodies look the worst.

If you got some old parts body and wing, used or new. doesn't matter.
Please send me a message.


Not sure if I'm going to do something with the most upper car in the picture..

I've got an entire Optima Mid Custom Special that has gone unused for about 5 years. I've also got a painted shell that has never been run.

Cool,
Are you selling it?

Or did you also restore it? where did you got parts? Do you have some tips to restore is back? :)

thanks in advance

I have no need for it, so could certainly let it go to a good home. It was restored in the late 90s/early 2000s, but has been used a bit since then, it's not in terrible condition though.

I'll get you some photos up when I get home, and I might still have some spares dotted around if I can find them.

The car at the top is the remains of an Ultima (maybe turbo). A shame it doesnt have the gold shocks. Wellworth a trade!

I know, that's why I might sell it in parts or the whole car at once and fund the other car with that money so I can restore it in a good way.

He said he had several other cars too, but a few years ago he putted them in the container, a little part of my heart broke off when he said that..

I'm only 17years old, but I really love these old things. I would LOVE LOVE to have a original RC10 goldpan but they are not cheap..
