Car is a Original Tamiya Super Hornet from the early 90's that I picked up used at Vintage RC National Race 2017. It was a mess lol. Now it is one of the best Tamiya Super Hornets IMO.
Paint was done by my self. I called it Garbage art seeing how the body was in the trash to be thrown. Painted over some of the original Super hornet stickers that survived, with some stinger looking spikes and sent it over to my life long friend Tony at TL Graphix for a automotive Quality Clear Coat WOW! Tony. Also I thought it would be cool to use the servo that would have controlled a mechanical Speed Control but now controls the skull driver head.

11. The only other mod that was done was the suspension mod on the rear. People make 3d printed parts for that. I do it differently so... Maybe @AMPROEngineering still makes them.
Was a fun build its mostly stock just a few things I changed like turn buckles and such. I'm a racing inspired builder. Its needs to look good but she needs to handle as well. This is a build I'll cherish it for as long as I'm here
