I know kits are available, but I tend to wire from scratch. These cars are very simple and not too hard to do, even with added complexity like flashing brake light indicators on the rear. Just take one circuit at a time and keep plugging away.
This isn't a how to, but a how I did it including one or two blind alleys along the way.
Take care and I'll catch you on the next one.

Right oh indeed. Looking good so far Mart. If anything goes wrong, I'm gonna start calling you "Sparky". Sparky Mart; sounds a bit like a convenience store....CHEERIO ! mike
