Hi guys as one of my chrimbo presents i managed to bag this classic buggy of ebay, well today i got to take it to bits and get it looking and running a little better, first off was to strip and clean everything and start making a note of parts required, it already came with new gears in the front gearbox, new tyres/wheels and new chassis. well its had new bearings, new 540 silver can, 13t steel pinion, new servo, new reciever and new mtroniks tio 19t esc. its turned out really nice and im proper pleased with how its turned out considering how little i paid for it. last few touches to do and a new body set to come.

and a good seing to.
