I'm sure you can bat this one out in a day!

This is going to be another nice one!!

I like the kyosho screws...compared to the Tamiya and Yokomo ones of the same period, I've found them to be far more durable

Like the carbon fibre stuff...using fibre lyte! I've ordered some parts from them today for a rebuild (not Kyosho I'm afraid!).

Looks great!

I have added a SWB Mid to my list of concurrent builds which brings me up to three now.

I will be starting threads for them once my goodies come in from Fibrelyte

Are the SWB battery holders difficult to find?

Unsure about the battery holders as I'm fortunate enough to have access to a few new sets....if you need some just shout.

I do need a set, PM me with details when you get a chance. I don't need all the other parts that come in the OT-98 blister pack, which can all be used for a LWB build so maybe we can work something out

I have been showing your pics to a friend of mine who has an old Mid lying around and I have convinced him we need to restore it into a super clean runner
