Aftermarket Rough Rider

Post by railey72 »

This one is a lot of fun. Rough Rider with tons of RCH hop-ups, aluminum wheels and lexan body. Really old school, Really HEAVY.

I like it! Maybe you should add some pig iron somewhere to "keep it real". :D

Man I have liked this car, from the first moment I saw it years ago on Tamiyaclub.

Hey Lexan, that car was on ebay? I thought I remembered seeing it on Tamiyaclub. What was the sale price, and do you remember who the seller and the buyer were?

Hey Scott, It went for $300 to $350 if I remember correctly. I don't remember who the seller was and I can only assume that railey was the buyer. Like I said, he was selling two of them. Mine was first, then about a week later he listed the one you see above. Here is mine, came with a Parma Jeep Honcho Body:

That one you snagged is just as cool, Jay. The chassis plate even looks great, with the holes in it. He obviously had a drill press and a ruler, unless you could buy them like that? That baby definately has the works. Dare I ask if it came with a diff? I dont know about you guys, but I would take one of these two SRBs any day of the week, even over a NIB one, well..........ya know what I mean anyways.

Scott, thank you for your comments. Very nice buggy mrlexan, thanks for posting the pics. I remember that one selling on ebay as well. It was a couple of years ago but I do think I bought mine for around 300-350. I like the honcho body. It looks like they have a lot of the same hop-ups.
