| description | I found this Super Astute on Ebay for a fair price. It was adverticed as New Built, but after closer inspection during restoration, I found a couple of parts that had been repaired (front uprights). Those parts are now replaced, and it is truly a New Built model.
I have left the body as I got it. The decals are not 100%, but they are good enough. In case I get tired os feeing them like this, I got a new Decal sheet, just in case
The Super Astute kit does not come with a motor, but I had to treat this very nice model with a new motor as well, and the choice fell upon the Dynatech 02H. A wonderfull motor to look at, complementing the Super Astute.
I hope you like it Keep looking here, as my restored Astute is soon ready. (only waiting for the rear tires)

@muratti: the rear Hybrid spike tires have not arrived yet, so I will wait to announce the source. I will let you know as soon as they arrive.
Very nice Super Astute! Where did you get your Rear Tires for your Astute from?
Yep, that motor suits it perfectly. Nice job.
Nice restoration! I always liked the looks of the Super Astute
