All looks great to me.
How did the Unicars go compared to the Russkits?

Wow! That chassis setup is in excellent condition!
It is a very nice looking chassis platform too.
Thank you so much for sharing it Maurizio.

Wow! It looks like anodized aluminum. It also appears to have notches on the left rear axle upright for a sidewinder setup. Is that what they're for?

Sorry I misunderstood, the tech block(black) is plastic. The anodized aluminum chassis actually has uprights shaped for a future sidewinder version, but AFAIK they ever didn't.
