  1. Well, after all, it's for a US$1000 model truck! Of course I understand what you mean, Neil. Myself, I need $100 for the dang set of shocks and supports for the Bruiser :-(
  2. Hey, Harleybrat I haven't had any pinions for your project, but have you checked eBay lately? I have found at least three people selling motors with the pinions attached for the 1st generation of the Tamiya Toyota Hilux 4x4. BTW, I have the shock sets with supports for those models, but I'm after the ones for the Bruiser in exchange. Have a good Sunday! EB --
  3. As title says. Anybody in the know? Y'all have a good weekend! EB --
  4. That does not seem to be the same problem I have, but I'm interested in seeing your work. Please upload the pictures! You have a good weekend!
  5. Wish I had saved the pictures of those aluminum bumper supports, but I never imagined one day I'd have a Bruiser. Oh, well. Anyway, FORTUNATELY the frame is straight. And I know I could use any other kind of bumpers, but I like the original one because it is scale and looks real. Thanks and have a good Friday!
  6. Hey everyone, I have a problem that is very common with the Tamiya Bruiser (and Mountaineer) model truck. For whatever the reasons, the two front bumper supports are bent. I was wondering if anybody have corrected this problem, and, if so, how such thing should be done. Also, I have seen somewhere aluminum reproductions for these. Anybody knows where can I find a pair of these? Any info is appreciated. Y'all have a great Friday!!

  8. Thanks, Ax and Jerome! Well, the Monster beetle body looks good on the Brat chassis. Since I could not find anybody trading a used Brat body, I have no other chance rather than to stick with the VW. It's going to be a nice beach buggy though. Thanks again and y'all have a good week!
  9. As title says, I have for trade these Toyota 4x4 (1981) original shocks with vintage CRP coilovers + front supports. I need all four Mountaineer/Bruiser shocks + supports. Y'all have a nice Monday! EB --
  10. Hey Y'all, I have seen Beetle bodied frogs arounf, but yet have to see a Beetle bodied Brat. I have the chassis, and the only extra body I have is a Monster Beetle. Anybody can led me to a link so I can check final results to such combination? Thanks in advance! Best regards, EB --
  11. Just go compare the gearing of a Frog and a Blackfoot. There are many downloadable PDF archives of those manuals out there. You have a good Wednesday! EB --
  12. The --lovely- Brat truck that you have there looks like the original Frog chassis to me. The bumper is from the Frog, and the shocks are not re-re but original all-metal Frog. The motor is a Tamiya upgrade sport-tuned, so it's sure it has the right pinion size already fitted. If you look closely, you'll see the previous owner used Frog body mounts to hold both dampers. Well, it has the original servo saver from the first generation of Brat pick-ups, so it's a very nice truck. The Subaru Brat was the very first Tamiya model to ever use this revolutionary chassis in the middle of 1983. After the Brat came the Lancia Rally, and THEN the Frog. I always wondered why people still refers to it as the "Frog chassis" (?) Anyway, if you are going to make a Black Foot out of this one, I have the front arms and tower to do so. See my trade list: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?...mp;#entry325583 You have a good Tuesday! EB --
  13. Hey you. I'm looking for some bits of the "4x4" mid 80's decal sheet made by Parma in the United States. Can't find a picture of it, but I'm only in need of the 4x4 logo. Or if you have other type of "4x4" logo I can use of. I can exchange for other bits of sponsor Parma decals I have no use for. The one I'm after is the older yellow set, but I can also use some of the newer one like the one in the picture. Y'all have a nice Friday!
