| description | The Yard, Boot and Garage, Sales have been good to me this year, a few months back my Dad found me a Rough Rider for $10 and this morning the thrifty gods smiled on me as I pulled into a yard sale I could see these two all to familiar trucks from my car and was hoping they would be priced right. I didn't even dicker on the price he was asking $20 for black one and $15 for yellow so I said sold without even much inspection lol! I guess I got two original Clods in near working condition, they are very dusty but don't look overly abused so I suspect I'll just clean them up and put them on the shelf to restore later this coming winter I never get sick of having clods and the ease of parts availability makes restos nearly painless for impatient people like me

lol, thanks guys, Yes I was planning to buy another Super Clod but this works out better since the licensed Chevy Tailgate make a big difference to me, but I'll likely replace many of the worn parts with super clod pieces.
I have first dips on them when the urge gets you to sell them Seth. I want that bowtie grille to add to my horde.
Great find! If I remember correctly, I read in another post not long ago that you currently didn't have a Clod in your collection, but probably would get a new one at some point in the future...well now you have two of them...LOL! Blow them with an airgun, and off you go!
Dang dang! a yellow clod. I so want one, I'm saving up to buy a clod. Get the yellow one shiny and as new then join the Yellow sig. Or just join the yellow sig.
Nice find. How come I never can find deals like that?
These are great, I always wanted a clod, maybe you sell one for me
Nice. Well done the bootsales round here turn up tl01s quite often but not much vintage stuff. But I keep looking every week lol
Well, what a find. I hope to find something in a yard sale soon. Since noone else has said it, the front tires on the black one are wrong way around.
Cool! looks like hours of fun ahead
WOOOHOOOO!!!!!!
Man, I'm waiting for a garage sale like that! I generally only see crappy tea service and buckets full of Happy Meal Toys

Thanks guys, I've inspected them more throughly and aside from both having cracked chassis tubs they are in great shape. needing only a tear down and rebuild with bearings and a few small parts I already have somewhere. I like the yellow also and will likely keep it or at least restore it in the same color, and do other one in boxart or maybe a custom beater look.
Score!
lucky find m8, good luck with them
SWEET!! The best thing about Tamiyas is to find them worn and dirty and get them back to their original glory. Great find, Seth!
Blazerbogger here, I think I need to move out West!
very nice find Seth
Wow I really like your Dad
wow what a find! its amazing what some people just want shot of. welldone.
Wow,thats was really cheap Seth. Wish I could find bargains like that
Thanks guys, yeah usually its just Toys but every so often an Old Tamiya, Kyosho, etc. shows up priced like a common cheap department store RC car.
Great find there Seth .You have struck Rc gold .Let the good luck keep on rolling .
That's a bit jam sandwich isn't it Wyoming? Nice pair of clod's.
