Thank you for the kind comments, the wheel are made by JPS (a US company), you might see the odd set pop up on eBay from time to time but getting hold of then new from the manufacturer is pretty much a none starter these days.

Some of my cars old and my current ones too. The optima is still stripped down but ive run out of time right now to finish it off. All the others are in a running condition and most have electric's in them, the Evo gets used a few times a year and i love driving her old school fun and fairly quick still.

Here are my Cougars:

The painted one is the Oople Invernational Ralls Racing Vintage winner from last year. Nath Ralls was on the sticks not me!

The Cougar 1 is a shelfer with a new clear body shell, new Reedy Sonic motor, Novak ESC and RX

The Crown Jewell of my collection. (at the bottom)

The scorpion was my first real RC. I bought it brand new in 1989 or so. Im working up to the rebuild restoration but will be a bit. (I wana do a box art body but Im too scared to paint the original untouched body myself)

Not entirely sure what's "vintage" these days but these are oldish.

Dyna Storm Original with genuine Tamiya carbon chassis:



Top Force Evolution:



Super Astute:



And and Egress, I have two of these NIB, this one is to be built when I get the time:



M01, M03 and M05 (not so old) Mini's:



And a small selection of motors:



Not as healthy as some collections but it covers my favorites.

Well here are my humble beginnings into collecting.

My Restored tamiya Dynastorm, has many Nimrod racing carbon parts fitted.


Restored Kyosho Optima, this car is pretty much built from NIP parts, very little of the legacy donor car remain, a total queen.


The housewives favourite, a '94 YOKOMO YZ10, again, car is 99% new and im mounting a spares back up so i can run it, not with the Masami shell on mind


Tamiya Monster Beetle......bought as it TBH, its mint, very lovely, not a car I'm head over heels for, but its a looker for sure.


Cant really include my Avante as its a 2011, but there will be more to come, I'm kinda hooked now.........so looking into RC10 and older Losi's.
