neo 0 Posted November 1, 2010 I'm sure ive seen a pic on here, or if not, then else where. But is there such a thing as a scale sized engine that'll fit in-between the rear gear case and the rear cage on the Scorcher? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B.M.T. 127 Posted November 2, 2010 A member here (can't remember more!) does a sweet 1/10th VW engine kit in resin. I have one that I got for a project that stalled. With some careful shaving to the back of the crank case it'd be right at home in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B.M.T. 127 Posted November 2, 2010 The detail is crazy. Being resin, there is a LOT of prep work to get it together, though. Flat sanding mating faces, etc. Cost, I think it was in the league of $40 or something. Been a few years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bad andy 6 Posted January 2, 2020 Hey guys, I realize this is a very old thread, but I came across one of Dale's resin engine kits (the high-detail units in the last pics) in my project stashes. I'm never going to get to this thing. Is anybody interested in one of these? Let me know. thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am not in a position right now due to the holidays, but yes, I am looking to find a Sand Scorcher. Can you send me some details, pics, and what you might want for it?
