This is my second used Bruiser purchase over the past month. As with SRB’s I am hooked on the Bruiser, but I’ll just stick with the two. Otherwise I’ll risk a backhand from significant others. I snapped this one up for a decent price from an ebay seller who works at Castle Hill Hobbies, Sydney NSW . They must have used this Bruiser as a vintage display piece inside the hobby shop based on the Ebay photo. Anyway they packed it nicely and great service overall. Compared to my other Bruiser this one needs a little more work doing to it. The shell isn’t cracked at all. Will need a strip, fresh coat of paint etc...Missing all the lights, mirrors and driver. The cracked windscreen I’ll chase from bruiserbuilder.com. The chassis is mostly complete, I’ll need to replace the missing front brush guard, one missing radius arm and the highly corroded cross member as seen in the photo. It’s strange no other parts are as severely corroded. As a bonus the Bruiser came with two spare tyres (look new) and a spare radio box which is in excellent condition. It’s a sunny winter day over here so my backyard has become the setting for my latest Bruiser addition with its brother.

mmmmm rust!

Thanks for your comments. My long term plan with these two is to have one as a shelf queen and the other as a light runner. They should come with a warning as these 3 speeds are highly addictive.

Nice to see both in a little different colors so you can tell the difference. Nice pair in blue!
