Is this worth saving?

It will take the paint right off any plastic body, and wont harm the plastic. I comes in a purple gal jug like antifrezze in the Automotive section of Walmart buy the carwax.

Thanks we don't have Walmart here but we do have Castrol products so I will take a look..

In this country it's now just called "Super Clean" now. Thanks for the tip Rick. I have tried the stuff and on some paints it doesn't seem to do anything. I will try on this body and see how it comes out.

soak it a few days and the paint falls off. I use it on the rims I deglue let them soak and the glue falls off also.

You could always chop it off and slam it down low run it with no grill, and use it like a Mud buggy
Wow, that's a cool idea I hadn't thought of! It'd be kind of a rat-rod RC

lol most of my rcs are rat rods... id forget spending the time on paint removal..spend the time on making the body look better .. fix up that front end a bit put on a grill (or make 1)then add some filler to the fender (ive used soder guns to melt plasic to fix parts. theres good glues and body fillers you can use too) it would be hard to make it look new again but you can make it look better. paint it flat black . then you got yourself a ''rat rod''..best part ..you can run it and not care if you roll it..

Here is proof for you that nitro (glo fuel) removes paint from lexan bodies. The Kyosho Datsun ute was only run a few times but the residue from those runs was left inside the body. It just fell off when I tried to clean it...the rest of the body is fine..well half bald..but will come up nice..
