thats grouse. Where from, pics? website link? I could never find one!
I would make it a drifter but then it depends what you want to do, run something tamiya if you're going to build a drifter. A tt01 for beginning or a ta05 for a little more experienced. Either way tt01 is shaft driven, i would go belt driven (ta05) for sure. Go electric, rather than nitro the shells usually end up ruined if you're trying to keep the shell a show piece. Chuck a brushless i motor in some new wheels, and run some sick camber.
