Any idea that this body is for, or who makes/made it? I think it's really cool.

Yeah, it's a Futaba G-Plug, and likely from before 1985, but I don't think it's a rebranded Futaba servo. The case doesn't match any of their old servos, and the spline matches what Sanwa used.
Try Graupner for the manufacturer's name. They did the import of Sanwa products, IIRC.
I think I figured it out, and it might be a World Engines servo.

Think these are tamiya bits? Came with some worn wheels that look like holiday buggy and sand scorcher. If anyone needs any of these bits let me know.

The roll hoop , fibreglass part and axles are all Tamiya Sand Rover , also the grey plastic piece is the front body mount for the sand rover , the fibreglass part is the rear suspension spring believe it or not .the bumper was common to the holiday buggy , sand rover and SRB
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

Lucas/ART Agitator front end. They sold it as a conversion for several other brands.

The saddles make it really easy to adjust caster which is cool, but doesn’t have any camber adjustment

5% of RC10Talk members access the site from Australia/NZ region. Therefore, 1 in every 20 photos is automatically flipped upside. It is only fair.

Or, to put it more accurately, 19 out of 20 photos are flipped, for those of us in the real world :P
