Yea the whole thing was spray-painted multiple layers of black and silver. I almost tossed it in the trash but I saw the pile of rg10gt parts and thought I could make something usable out of it, plus it came with a complete A-chassis early short arm car that I have been driving and I thought tires/wheels would be easier to source for this truck than another buggy, Plus I will be beating the snot out of it.
And I want to race it so no need to make it pretty, just functional and effective.

Any setup advice for an indoor clay track is appreciated.

I should have it done this weekend, I will post some pics

I really enjoyed handing some of the sct guys there as$ with this old girl especially when they have at least 5 times the money wrapped up in theirs.
I want to get this thing reliable and performing well enough to race the local club races.

Watch out I'm hooked.
