A couple of Mids awaiting body
The Turbo is my first new built Mid - used set of wheels dyed black with RIT
The Turbo Special is cleaned and rebuilt with the best used parts I had - Used set of wheels dyed orange with RIT
I guess they´ll both end up with their respective stock wheels.

Re: A couple of Mids awaiting body
Those twins look great. Even though I turned my Turbo Mid SE into a 2WD, I really love how sleek and well-engineered the car is. They're actually a much easier car to build than the original Optima series were. I don't know if someday I'll end up doing my usual bulletproof treatment on a 4WD Mid, but I'd definitely be open to the idea if one fell into my lap someday (like OptiMutt did, thanks to flipwils11).

I love it! Optima Mid models are my weakness and this sample looks sweeeet with the orange rims.

Cheers

Re: A couple of Mids awaiting body
Im tempted to copy that orange. Ive got a pile of wheels just need re finished. Finally got some 2.0 tires ordered up as well. Still cant seem to find any 2.0 4wd front specific tires though.
