Personally, and I know this is different for everyone, I am looking forward to getting a NIB that I can build with more reliable modern electronics and then bash without having to worry. I am a Fan of the Tamiya re-releases for the same reason. I know this is a hotly contested debate, but for me to have a car that I can drive and enjoy whilst still keeping my precious shelf queen in one piece.

I will always value my original more, but I can now enjoy the car in the dirt without having to worry.

Just had a great long chat with Cliff.

Its going to look exactly like the original.

They had to retool the chassis....was not easy 7 different processes.

Shocks will look same but slight mod so they no longer leak.

Idler gear updated for brushless.

Lipo ready.

Awesome....what a great guy.

They're very conscious of not annoying vintage collectors

I thought Jay's car got lost years ago? Also any word on the tire size/options?
