Yup, Invader. Here is what the front end should look like with all the pieces (ignore the rusty screws!).

The rear end on mine is completely different, meant for dirt oval or....off-road?!
Note the world's shortest 1/10 scale dogbone between the axle halves. And yes, the motor does swing with the arm. Flintstone engineering at it's finest!

bolink did make an offroad truck using the invader chassis. i have not seen one with out the body on yet so i am not sure. i have an invader with a solid front end. i have even seen one that was a lot different as in green chassis and all. i am figuring that was a very early version of the invader or what became the invader. i have seen a couple rear conversions. none like what you have but conversions from other companies could be a possibility. i know tecnacraft made a rear pod / conversion for the invader.

pancars bolink is original. my first rc was a invader like pancar has pictured. they were offered with a corvette dirt oval body(like mine),a bolink funco body(off roader) and a truck body(off roader) and others i'm shure but i can't remember. lowclass, the bolinks without shocks were called round trackers i believe.

Mine has the dirt oval body with it. Here's a few pics of what is still in the box. I just love their bumper stickers. Another one they used to send out in their dealer packs for the hobby shops said "Shoplifters Will Be Killed And Eaten". Wonder how much of a deterrent that was!
