  1. I'm looking for a set of aluminum wheels for the Monster Beetle/Blackfoot. A while back there were a bunch of new ones for sale on eBay but they are no longer available. Wondering if anyone here picked up several sets and would part with one. Would prefer the gold ones as they will be mounted in a MB. Thanks!!
  2. That's the plan. Was thinking about the Aqroshot tires but they look a bit dodgy on the rear due to the wider wheel.
  3. HAHA, well concrete and asphalt. Not on grass. I am using the stock tires but plan of getting some different tires. Thanks!
  4. Has anyone experienced the Blitzer beetle skidding out or spinning when turning on concrete? Mine seems to be so heavy in the rear that when I turn on concrete the BB will do a 180 spin.
  5. Re release the King Cab, and Super Blackfoot. It's time...
  6. Looking for a Tamiya King Cab in the USA
  7. Hello, I'm looking for an original monster beetle body in good condition with all parts and stickers in tact. I don't want to pay an arm and a leg either. I see one on flea at for 129 and that's too much. Can anyone help? thanks

  9. Does anyone know of a rear bumper with a hitch mount that fits the Bruiser chassis? I want to have my Bruiser pull a trailer. Thanks!
  10. Love the paint job. Have fun! I got my first blackfoot in 1988. I loved that thing so much...
  11. Has anyone seen aluminum rear body mounts like these? Thanks!

  13. Ok. I may have to post slow due to picture size.:)
  14. Did you get those new CNC parts? Did they fit? I've been looking for an upgrade for my SBF and KBF.
  15. Hello, does anyone know of any other part that can sub for the original SBF F2 and F3 parts? They are part of the front arms where the steering knuckles screw in. They are hard to find on eBay....hoping Tamiya does a re release on this soon.
  16. It's been great so far. I find that it holds up better that regular spray paint.
  17. Thanks Terry. I just put in the 30mm screws so we will see if that helps. I really wish someone would start making aluminum hop up parts for the SBF and KBF. They are great trucks but have their week spots...
  18. Have you ever thought about painting them? I never really wanted to do that until I had an idea that called for black wheels..I used plastidip instead of paint in case I wanted to remove it later... this is my super monster beetle...
  19. I have a super blackfoot I've rebuilt with a new frog chassis and put a beetle body on it. It's meant to be a basher but the rear shock screws keep coming out of their holes. Is there a fix for this? Are there any aluminum parts for this?
  20. I just love the ORV line so much. I had a blackfoot and a frog growing up. I always wanted the monster beetle. I managed to get my hands on a vintage one before the re release came out. It has morphed into the ultimate monster beetle. Thorp tranny aluminum rear trailing arms and hubs. Aluminum front uprights and steering knuckles. Aluminum motor cover and rear body mount brace, as well as front body mount... just need the upper and lower front arms. I'm hoping someone will start making aluminum rear body mounts, and an aluminum rear bumper for the monster beetle...
  21. I bit the bullet and bought an NOS pack of uprights with the ball connectores for $23. I'll post pics when I get it fixed and cleaned
