description  I have done a little more to the $45.00 Samurai find. A TBG body was painted black and it was decorated with some leftover Marui and Traxxas decals. The driver was lowered to a more realistic height and the tires were glued to the rims, foam inserts installed. The rim centers were going to be gloss black but I decided on gold, I really like the way the wheels look now. This will be another runner after a little more tweaking. Thanks for looking!

Thanks def4x4. The staggered step block type design is interesting. I drove it on dirt last night and they seemed to work well. The front tires wear faster than the rear if the center diff is being used as is the case with this one!

Cool looking buggy, love all the details and those wheels. Iīve never seen such grazy cool tires, it looks like those little rubber pieses are glued her and their on the tires, not in a strait line!! Thats so different and make that bug so special.

Thanks Seth. That's crazy, but I know my mom has tossed a lot from my childhood too! I do recommend a Samurai, they really are great, and to think they will surely never be re-released...

very cool, I had a Samurai once in days before ebay but never got it built as the kit was missing a few parts from a buddy who started it but never finished building it, just not sure what ever happened to it my mom might have tossed it out cause it was a big box of loose parts
