Lucky you didn't post this on a vintage kyosho site: they might have lynched you for cutting up those rare progress bodies to fit a pegasus

not to worry man, the bodys are repos .
Actually, the buggys when i started were ready for the garage prettymuch - scratched up pretty bad and worn parts.I figure there never be orignal shelf queens so why not make a project out of it,
is there any vintage kyosho sites?

where did you get the repros from?
I found some some sites like:
vintagekyosho.com but it has no picture posting or forum
tamiyaclub.com has lots of kyosho, but picture posting is only for paying members, no forum as I remember
rcuniverse.com does a bit of everything but has no dedicated forum or galleries for vintage or kyosho i believe
Found 2 great japanese sites with lots of vintage kyosho, but no English
put this in google: darren's vintage rc and yoou 'll find another great site.
This one is really the best I found for posting and discussing your vintage car pics
