Bird of Prey (Sold to my Dad, will get it back one day...)
Picked this up on ebay for a very decent price, especially when I opened the box to see what a great condition it's in. Very few scratches on the underside although the bumper has seen some action and needs replacing. Front shock mounts broken (no surprise) so new ones on order from Jim Sourbeck, along with some CRP dogbones to replace the std ones. Shell has been poorly cut out in some places, and whilst I like the colour scheme I'll be tidying it up and spraying it over the top (unless I can dump it in some brake fluid - does that work with lexan bodies?). Will try and get some repros decals from someone/where. Electrics all look like new, wheels only touched so it clearly hasn't been run very hard. Box a bit tatty but I see the box as an important part of my collection so glad to get it either way.
Has it's faults but I like it, and am looking forward to tidying it up and putting it on my shelf with an occasional run out.

you`ll want to run it more than you think, these are very good fun, regards to the body Kamtec do a repro one, decals should be able to get some off one of the ebay sellers,
p.s. you beat me on ebay but at least the best man won
