Finally - i got my old Avante out.... but need to find 1 part to restore her.
Anyone know where or has a spare "A part" for Avante/Egress/Vanquish
Front Bulkhead - part no. 9005271
Would be great to get her up and running again!作者: tamiyafan 時間: 2010-4-8 15:53
You can sell it to me 作者: xiang 時間: 2010-4-8 16:06
Haha... tamiyafan u dreaming!
How much does a second hand avante sell for these days?
I also have a Egress that needs restoring, but the Egress and other parts for my avante are in UK.
U can see from the ball joints on my avante been in storage for long time... the top ones i cleaned, the bottom ones need cleaning!
Its been a long long time since i played the avante... would be nice to get her on the road again.
So if anyone can help me find a front bulkhead for the avante i would be very grateful.作者: hihizaza 時間: 2010-4-8 17:48

sure! but will be a while till fully restored!
Wing, CPR P-100F, technigold motor and vintage nicads not in HK at the moment.
Planning on being fully restored and running in 2011. Will post an update before then, once i get hold of a "A part" front bulkhead.
Anybody know of any repro avante shells with stickers at a reasonable price?作者: xiang 時間: 2010-4-23 21:11 本帖最後由 xiang 於 2010-4-23 21:14 編輯
My Avante is getting closer to being restored, some pics to show the progress!
Thanks to TommyTam for fixing me up with his Avante 2001 for parts!
You'll be happy to know that I am thinking of also restoring it to use as a runner.

For those interested... I found some interesting info about the different versions of the avante here: http://translate.google.com/tran ... %26hl%3Den%26sa%3DG
Next update on this will be a while... but should also include an Egress!作者: TommyTam 時間: 2010-4-24 21:46

You're welcome man....作者: xiang 時間: 2010-4-26 02:38
Ahh! Used "A part" just sold for over HK$300 on ebay incl. shipping... too expensive for me la!
TommyTam... looks like i can't afford to restore the Avante 2001 as well as my Avante and Egress!
Will have to put the 2001 on hold and decide what to do with her after i restore the others.
If anyone reading this has the "A part" left hand side only front bulkhead to sell me at a reasonable price... do let me know.
