And the chassis I will be using.I dug this one out of a box of vintage I had,its a HPI RS4 sport chassis with a few mods and poopy electrics(shows how old it is!)

Next is a decaled and joined shell that needs detailing and more sanding.I bought a set of RS alloy wheels and MINILITES that were made for this shell...

They're cool! It's a great shape the mk1. Always liked the lancia stratos shell that was available years ago, can't seem to find them anymore.. (Probably coz I've not looked hard enough)
