Hey Twisty!
Yeah I got the original version not the re-re. I figured i'd never be able to afford 58001 or 58002
for now so went next best with the P34!
plus i think it one of the more interesting Tamiya designs too (this is of course, very subjective). For some reason, the newer Tamiya's just don't interest me as much as the older ones
I think I have got myself a good un off ebay, most of the major parts are there and i think the remaining parts can be either found or made...
For starters, any suggestions on what motor & battery combo I should be using? The old school battery packs ( C(UM2) or battery box) look quite pony and i dont think it'd go very fast/last very long
? I will install a 580 motor into it i think and I will also probably wire it up using an esc and standard stick pack if it fits
ok so parts needed for now...
- Part K1 & P1 - links the right hand wheels to the left hand (or vica versa), quite easily found on ebay
- Park K3 x 2 - to hold the body on to the chassis -

- 2 x N1 (Battery Box and relevant connector parts)
- Manual Speed Controller

any suggestions on where to look (no need to be rude here
)
TBH this is quite a simple rc car in terms of number of parts etc, just need to start taking it apart and getting it back together..!
I'll get some pics up of it in the near future, still working on a couple of other projects, finishing of a madcap for my bro, a bigwig for myself and now this little baby!
