Welcome on board Steve

Your Scorcher looks preety good, the chassis looks like it's doesn't need much more than a light tickle up

Missing body bits could be a problem, depending on how much of a purist you are - lights, sunroof, wipers, badge, exhaust & driver are all very similar on the re-release, but door handles, mirrors, number plates & decals are all quite different.

NICE!
Those beautiful curved fenders are so much nicer than the later Blitzer/MB/re-re fenders...

Ah haha lol, well picked JR

Lars - I'd never noticed any difference in body shape between old & new. There have been several people asking about the differences between mk1, mk2 & re-re SRBs, perhaps a proper topic/discussion about it might be in order? (With pics showing the differences?)

Thanks guys, I've just bought a re-re body for when I occasionally run this once it's been restored (on the beach only, as it was intended) but I will be fully restoring the original shell to it's former glory using original bits also for when it's sat on the shelf. This way I can have the best of both worlds.

Will be started my build thread very soon so keep your eyes peeled!

Cheers Bram, but I was thinking more along the lines of an official Tamiyabase thing, something that everyone (Not just Tamiyaclub members) could access, that was easy to find

There are plans for exactly this, so stay tuned.
