  1. Sounds like i need to sell this overseas..............lol
  2. looks amazing!!! I guess you just wouldnt be able to have a wheelie bar if you put this on a WR02 outside of that.......... amazing!!!
  3. HAH, you should know me well enough to know I won't run it if it's built!
  4. So easy off will do the trick???? I've worried about it since I used it to remove the anodizing off of my Baja b5 aluminum parts and it pitted every one of them. I did notice that easy off doesn't have the ingredients mentioned above. I'll try the mr muscle stuff 1st the oven pride will cost about 30 shipped to get here but it might be worth ordering if 1st option fails.
  5. I believe so! I fought the urge, its back in the closet tucked away.
  6. let me dig it out............. yes I hid it so i wont open the dang thing! Well dang, apparently I had been looking at the back of the box which doesnt mention the LEDs man.......... now i touched the box and stared at it too long. MUST FIGHT THE URGE!
  7. I've had mine sitting in the closet for a couple weeks now trying to avoid opening it...... did someone say it actully comes with led lights in there too??
  8. this the Oven Pride you are referring to? I also found a Mr Muscle oven cleaner that contains these ingredients Monoethanolamine 1 - 5% Diethylene glycol butyl ether 10 - 20% Sodium hydroxide 1 - 5% Will this work and not harm the plastic? my biggest concern is damage to the plastic itself. full detals on the US version of Mr muscle https://www.conncoll.edu/media/website-media/offices/ehs/envhealthdocs/MrMuscle.pdf
  9. Hi guys, so this is going to be my 1st thread in here and it's been brought up a lot but I need clarification. What is the best way to remove paint of vintage plastic bodies?? Before you say "search" I did a search and ran through 4 threads on it and see that De solv it and model-strip and some other cleaners work great..................... in the UK as in those awesome products aren't available to me So what can I use that is available in the US beside brake fluid? Only reason I want to exclude that is I tried it on a king blackfoot body and it ruined the plastic. So any help would be greatly appreciated and if this could be a comprehensive list of what works if there isn't one already (i did a search on google and here) If knowing the body/bodies I will be doing, it is an original Monster beetle, and a not nearly as cool World Engines Rock Buster body. Thanks in advance! MUD
  10. Ive heard the same, but since my Dirt Thrasher is a shelf queen not sure how much more in mods I wanted to spend
  11. How do you think my collection began?!?!?!? lol
  12. yup, it's understood....
  13. Hah, thanks!!! I'm on pins and needles as I want/need to get this body done... got too many rebuild projects in a state of incompletion, most of them are waiting on the bodies to be refinished.
  14. Nice to see people helping each other with spare parts. Terz1 I was in the same boat as you, I picked up a rere MB off a member of another forum for pretty cheap, but then sold it for a little more and scored a pretty much untouched MB that had sat in storage for over 12yrs. I just rebuilt it (need to strip the body though) and would never run it but as Beefmuffin said score a cheap rere and run it instead. BTW off topic, since I need to strip my MB body, what is Mongoose soaking the body in??? Or a suggestion on what to use to not ruin the plastic (nose piece is somehow permanently staying on in case that could get ruined by brake fluid or something else). MUD
