I love these old carbon tub cars, but I'm restoring two myself, if it's an XT , then of course it should have webbing on the front wishbones, (more than the first car, but less webbing than the later cars ?) I have one shell not for sale , maybe it's time somebody did a re-issue, drop Kamtec an e-mail and he might do a batch ? maybe ask Richard first - I love the look of the first Pred - pure racer through and through. It's mainly the prop that needs changing - I need one too lol The front wing should read 'Tenth Technology' I'm amazed there are still orange wheels around NIP , wish I could buy them, but I just bought a house , doh ! Good luck with the resto Graham ! Hi Peter, It's great that someone else is keeping the dream alive too! I have loads of old parts if you need any (apart from Prop!). I'llask about shells onanother forum. Good luck with yours. G

I have sent an e-mail to Kamtec and mentioned about a repro-shell. Coop, do my eyes deceive me or is that a Tamiya Thundershot Motor mount with htose bits lol I'd still like to know the cut-off numbers for different models - unless they're in another thread ? ie - at which chassis number did the first Pred's become XT , then 95 Pro ? It looks like that's tubs number is gone ?

51134 is my 95pro
dunnow about other numbers, should ask Richard for that one...
motor mounts looks like an XT although I've also seen black ones with a golden motor plate. You can see it's XT or 95 pro because there is no brace to the small rear carbon plate.
