Default Help Identify this Hobby-Tech?

This is my old (very old) Hobby-Tech 4WD touring car that I'm going to stick a whole load of modern electrics into.

I am struggling to identify what the model of the car is however so was wondering if anyone here knows?

In addition, as you can see on th front suspension, the connecting rods are solid plasic, as such I am looking to replace these with adjustables but need to know what size cups would be needed

Any help appreciated

Oh and any idea what grease I should be using on a car this age?

I'd better grease this up good before attaching a brushless motor

Good old ebay, I got a 5.5 EZRun, 60A ESC and programming card for £19 delivered (new). I expect this to shred the HT1 to pieces. Foam tyres in the post so I also don't shred carpet

qatmix - don't suppose you know what size ballstuds this thing's front suspension uses? I want to replace those awful solid plastic bars with adjustables. Looking forward to the nex part, the first one was superb.
