I happened to mention that as a 9 year old kid that I always wanted a Holiday Buggy... Well, for my birthday last week this turned up for me.... YAY!!

It's got the usual chassis breakages, but I don't mind as I'll do best to repair. The body Is in good condition, the windscreen pillars are in one piece, bit it's got a couple of extra holes in the luvres that'll get covered by the stickers that I;ll buy.
Over time, I'll get a load of spares and even extra complete roller auction listings to be bought for use of as spares.
The tyres are in very good conditon, but the UJ's are in poor condition, fortunately Sand Scorcher ones can be used. Need a new motor, & will fit modern ESC in place of the original MSC & radio gear, along with a modern battery pack too. Also could do with new gears, but will probably have to wait for those... I've so far stripped the stickers off and removed the electrics.
As to the metal front bumper....??? not sure really, but seeing as the SS one fits, I'll replace it with one from the new re're...
I've also fitted new ball races in the front wheels and the rear axle and final drive gear shaft too.
