Finally I got these restore projects started. I have been collecting parts since may this year and I think I have all that's needed. As my other builds, these two cars will be built by using mostly second hand parts (in great condition).

Wow! Super nice sir! :shock:

Thanks Lars! These projects almost went a bit too fast after I finally got all the stuff needed.

They look fantastic buddy! I always think Kyosho had an off day when they designed the stickers for the Custom Special,...

I picked up this Turbo Optima Mid Special off a local online auction site for pretty cheap.
It was sound and mostly complete,but still a little rough around the edges.

I am new on the forum hi everyone
I got an old Special Custom with the gold flat aluminum or steel chassis.
I have no upper deck.
Chassis could maybe be run this way but has a bit of flex.
Can a Lazer zxr upper deck work?

Last post

This FactoryWorks upper chassis plate is awesome! Thanks so much!
