Re: Hobby Products Texas Wild Baja
Yeah that's what I mean. Literally on the corner of my road are some dudes who do power washing by hand of cars. I think if I get my car done I can ask them to go over some small RC bits too right?bearrickster wrote:if you dont have a power washer go to the car wash?
Re: Hobby Products Texas Wild Baja
Guys, be nice, here's another absolutely sexy sand-hot piece of equipment I was able to nail down in the Bay. Whaddaya think? It's sand tires on magnesium rims 1:8 scale... A little oxydated but who really cares; the sand will wipe it off.
He robbo, ye don't forget me when ye start molding, dayya?

Re: Hobby Products Texas Wild Baja
I found another HP, this time it´s the Volvo 343 as sold by Minicars AB in Sweden.
The chassi is used but very nice, no broken part only a few missing, boxlid and tank. Engine is a Veco 21, and is in good condition.
But no manual to this one either![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
