I was hoping my pic would motivate Doug to post a pic of the McAllister version. I don't think I have those.

Temple, you need tires? I have a box of those at my apartment. I think most are non-AE though.

I've been storing my foam tire cars without tires on them... but I can always use some pre-trued foams. :wink:

I think most of what I have are Jerobee badged tires, some RPS/Losi and some Troll as well.

I have one still in the bag. I did not want to disturb it for this build. Not that it is of great value. thanks for the offer though. :D

Here is the chassis for the body but I can't seem to cut the holes to mount it up.

Anyone know what the 12L associated mclaren body is worth?? Or some of the other old 12L associated bodies nip? I found some at a hobby shop the other day, Place has been in business for 30 years... Should I pick em up? also it looked like he had some nip rear foam associated tires... Let me know what I should do.

They were $8-12 new, so if they are asking more than that, they are overpriced. I'd be interested in any old Associated 1/12th bodies if you picked them up, unless they are TOJs (I have 4 or 5 of those). Anything else, I'd take them...
