Just because I’m so happy for it. Found an old lot of NIB parts, mainly hardware ect for only around $20 shipped that arrived today. Such a great deal and a stuff I really need to get this rolling.

I have recently acquired an old Team Associated Nitro TC3 (#2033 factory kit), that I plan to restore.
