The chassis appears to be a genuine and original AE factory fluorescent pink powdercoated chassis with truck nose plate. The chassis is in almost perfect shape and appears to have never been run. It does show some very slight shelf wear but other than that it looks perfect. I would like to convert it to a period correct buggy but the main problem is the truck nose plate: it leaves me with only one possibility, that is having a RPM world's conversion on the front and a regular set-up on the back, which I don't fancy a lot. Now I would love to have a proper pink buggy nose plate and will start hunting for one. Should anyone have one, I will gladly tarde the truck one for a buggy one
I also noticed the center hole in teh nose plate that is used for a shorter (buggy) wheelbase is still full of paint/untapped. Was that common or was AE tapping these holes at the factory? The AE 3/32" screws in teh chassis were replaced (sacrilege) by black Losi ones, yikes 
The truck also included some nice aftermarket parts: RPM servo mounts, RPM shorty bumper (dyed black), RPM rear hubs (early version with teh old logo in italics), RPM center link, Andy's rear shock tower, rear blocks and battery cup that has seen better days. It also came with an unused set of silver chromed Pro-Line truck wheels, a set of original tires and rims (dyed black) that I will most probably get rid of as I've never been a huge fan of trucks. Most of these will probably go back on teh buggy and I plan to use black MIP shocks with white collars, white arms all around and will probably use RPM white ball cups along with old school titanium turnbuckles (probably Lunsford/RCPS ones). That's it for now and here come a few (crappy) pictures:
