my newest Tamiya!!!!!
Just finished putting togeather my Avante Re re.
Got this for my B Day present. I saw it on rc tech here for a cheap price and was 2/3 built only. So all i had to do was finish the front end. Easy i thought but 8hrs to do. Gee what a complicated buggy.
The owner painted the graphite edges in blue than sealed the carbon fiber with CA glue.
This pic is not good but i still have electrics to install.
Yes this will be runner once i get another shell, wing & undertray.

Re: my newest Tamiya!!!!!
Looks good Mark...I saw this deal and was tempted too. If you want to get rid of the super glue and painted edges, abit of soaking in a seal tub of acetone would get rid of it.
