Thanks

Paul,
I had one very similar but not as good of shape as yours show up on a traxxas bullet I picked up several years ago that was all tricked out with aftermarket stuff. Can't find the body right now but it had stickers all over the wing from alot of aftermarket companies on it so if I can find it I'll post up some of the companys on the wing so maybe someone can id them for us.

Hi Todd :)

mmmh... Traxxas Bullet. I will check as I have a mint one on the shelf... that "step" in the front makes me wonder though...

Wilco - thanks for the potential pointer. If anyone wants that body, they can have it for free btw (just pay shipping)

Not saying it wasn't all hacked up to fit but it looked good on it...until I got it and seen it up close :? Otherwise hope it gets some more noticeability and maybe mrlexan can come up with any ideas of who or what it is.

The ones on the left are aftermarket knock-offs, they're all over eBay and cheap as dirt. Not sure about the ones on the right...

I bought a big box of rc parts and this lot is what i have left over that i can't identify.

Most of the wheels are from 1/12th Stockcars i think (Pinky/Bandit maybe?) and a few other random pairs. But it's mostly the shocks i know nothing about, they're all basic type friction shocks. Also there's a set of new black wheels that look like they're from a pan car that i can't identify (2 hole fitting)

Any help?

Thanks
Paul.

Well, that was what I first thought too, but after hours of searching they seem to be made by some other company.
Would love to get a catalog to be 100% sure.
