Power washing! Why didn't I think of that? There's a place down the road which might be able to do that...thanks a lot.

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?

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. :wink: He robbo, ye don't forget me when ye start molding, dayya?

Body is perfect. Never been used and factory painted.
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 :(

Another Rowdy Baja clone. I didn't realize that there were so many out there! Not that its a bad thing as these have to be the rarest. Dig that crazy engine orientation!
