I’m in the US & have a battery box from the T500 cafe build.
Bought the T500 as a non-runner with T500 & GT500 motors. Will go through the boxes of parts to see if I have a GT500 airbox. Will post pic of what I find.

I have two battery boxes — both in good condition. Do not have an airbox.

Pics of the two airbuses. Airbox in 1st pic was repainted -- see bottom of pic for signs of prior rust pitting.
