I myself wanted a bit of history and gone and bought all the cars I used and drove when i got drives and admit went overboard and done the electrics, including the chargers as well as the transmitter (I bought five of the same )and receivers plus of course motors so once you start its hard to stop.

Yes Kamtec do lots of stuff including the Parma tomcat shell for the Lazer or the Lazer ZXS which is a tighter fit and you need RC10B4 servo mounts and spacer to move the servo further forwards but is just as nice.

I seem to be the same, I'm currently trying to get all the cars I had or wanted as a kid growing up. Looking back I wish I'd never got rid of them - just got to find them all again now.

The Turbo will be treated to some nice professional paint, I'm not letting it down with my efforts

I think the plan for the ZXR will be a change over to the Fibre-Lyte tub chassis and all carbon parts, topped off with the Tomcat shell.

Other's that I've got, but need restoring are a Sand Scorcher, a Cougar 2000 & and a Cougar 95 Team. So there's a few to be working on.

I'd love to have a mid or two in the collection too, but they don't seem to be coming up very often.

I know what you mean it's hard to stop once you've started, it's a very addictive side to the hobby.
