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.

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!
