Hi everybody,

just wanted to show off one of my latest resto's. This will be a runner, newer springs & tires attached therefore. If you like the paintwork I can truly recommend Bak Design: http://www.milleniumrc.com/car/index.php from france. Comments welcome, BTW - i am looking for original or resto 870C bodies and undertrays (japanese version), as well as yokomo/reedy/etc.. decals matching the timeline. Please pm me if you want to offer me one.

I'll post some as soon as it is completely wired inside. At the moment i am still not sure if i use vintage electronics or not. The chassis etc. is pretty standard besides a jammin jay top deck.

Is that the YZ870C you bought off ebay from England if so that would be my old one, was sold with Jammin plate, AE Hard coated shocks and the Kamtec body. Looks great with the paint job. I miss selling that car.

top quality paintwork indeed!
I think I have one of those TX's... dirty and used, haven't tested if it worked yet after re-discovering I really can't drive a pistol-grip.
I'd be happy to trade the TX for the topdeck if you decide to do away with it. PM me if you're interested.

Hi Varma ! That's correct, parts of the car are from yours. I do now own 3 YZ-870C's :)
