Kyosho Optima Mid Custom Special... accidental ebay win!

Join me for a tour of this Kyosho Optima Mid Custom Special that I'm planning on restoring. One of those accidental e-bay purchases! I'm told this was a Welsh competition car, so if you know any history of the car please get in touch.

Well here's an unexpected recommendation in my feed seeing my old buggy pop up! You bid "just coz he seemed like a nice guy". Thank you! It's good to see the car has gone to a good home and there was certainly a lot of non-original on there as i'd raced it for many years before it got put in the attic. Was raced regularly at Caldicot at weely meets back in the "Doug amd Steve" days and then at a number of welsh-national meets, Caldicot, Blackwood, Saundersfoot etc but never did too well because of financial limititations when i was younger, which also explains the use-what-i-had screw approach 😁

Oh man the random screws monster got after this one might be worth picking up a stainless steel screw kit - it drives me crazy when I find people have done this to cars 😩
