Default Optima MKI restore.

Had this arrive the other day. Its a tad rough, and already costing me a small fortune, but being a bit anal, im trying to replace much of the car with new parts.

As it landed.

Strip down commenced.

Front lower plate, this was a MESS, deep grooves, heavily scarred, this is round two of sanding a polishing, think its looking OK now.

Selection of parts collected so far, new shocks, NIP bumper, many other new parts, having to use Mid wishbones as the ones on the car are awful, but im sure Mid arms (that i picked up mint) will be fine?


More to come soon, as on strip down of the gearboxes, there pretty bad lol, so gearing is required.

Oh and on the off chance, i could use a NIP set of wheels, and a servo mount plate if anybody can sell anything off.

bests........lee
