This will be interesting against my T/Ultima.
Flat Alloy Chassis and saddel packs. Otherwise the same as my T' Ultima.

Guys sorry for the small pic.
Once i will get it i will post better pics.
I couldn't resist as it has "golds" all round , sway bars, alloy sadel pack chassis, option house motor guard and a Kyosho 16+2 mod motor for $130.00
Not interested in any other Ultima's as they aren't vintage here.

Thanks Mr Ed. LOL.
Just given my new ultima a quick strip down. Inspected the gearbox & diff and re lubed it. The shocks got a re build and slapped up a quick paint job on a new TBG shell. New decals were added along the way. The only real problem is a snapped top deck which I have repaired myself. Seems to be ok for now.
It has had little use so it was a bargain. Came with vintage Kyosho saddle pack too. Not sure of what electrics to run but am thinking of trying out the Kyosho 16x2 mod motor it came with as the magnets seem good too and a full rebuild will bring it back I hope.

That looks fantastic. Looks like the upper deck has some stress in it at a few points but it should be fine. For the motor, I would just replace the brushes and skim the comm and it'll work great.
