Decided to fix up and rebuild my tamiya touring fleet. I have quite a few that I've aquired along the way, and a few more just came in. Going through bodies, wheels, spare parts and what not and rebuilding them to at least shelf status, if not full runner status. Just getting things together here, most still need to be cleaned up and finished up.
Left to Right:
TB02, new not yet run. Fully hopped up, and though the wheels are on another chassis in these pics, may make this my drifter.
FF01 - I've had this car since ....94? Just recently started rebuilding it. Tamiya'a best handling FWD car imo. This will see a run or two for old times sake, be mostly will be a shelf queen.
TA03R - just picked this up from EBay as a mostly roller, and used some parts from my wrecked TA03F to finish it up. This will be a runner, and will just be for onroad fun. 17t motor, and quite a few hop-ups, though most are in the driveline and not really visible.
TT01 - This will most defintely be a runner. Needs a bit of TLC and have some parts on order. This probably going to rally duty as i have tons of spares for it. Let the beating begin!
M04 - my miata, will be a shelf queen, just have to put it together. may take it out for a run or two but will take it very easy.

Not shown:
TB01 - traded away a spare XC chassis for it, coming Monday
F103GT - bone stock, no body yet.
M02 - Dual motor mini that I have no idea what to do with yet.
TL01 - in parts currently.
As I get these finished up, I'll post pics of them completed. Going through all my bodies and figuring out what fits best where.
