I found this on another site, thought I'd post it here. I honestly didn't know it was based on an actual car.

I wonder if any are still around. It would be neat to see a full size replica like they did with the Sand Scorcher.
I think Tamiya should have went with the name as well.

I guess that answers that question.
If I ever lived in a coastal town I would seriously consider getting some sort of buggy to drive around in.

Those cars are FUGLY! I have a good friend who had one of those as a first car. He thinks they are the best thing since sliced bread.

I think every male thinks that about their first car, while most women can't even tell you what make their first car was.RedScampi wrote:I have a good friend who had one of those as a first car. He thinks they are the best thing since sliced bread.
The preceding contained opinions, beliefs and thoughts that all may not agree with. No offense was intended at any point. Carry on.
