Ok so you see something on ebay and the next thing you know its 3am and your thinking that looks great and the impulse bid kicks in,

oops what did I just buy is the next thought,

well this was one of those things,

and then it arrived and it was worse than it looked

the chassis had strange bits of plastic which had been hacked and drilled to hold it together,

the front shocks where one CVA and a shumacher shock both diffrent lenths and the chassis had about 15 extra holes drilled in it

well if you think thats bad the body had the whole rear section roughly cut out, the grill had the slots badley cut and the front screen was either badley cut or cracked,

I guess you could say this car was a tad on the rough side,

well with a basher in mind to through in the back of the car without worrying about damage etc that i can run down the beach etc, sounds cool,

so I payed the grand sum of under £17 delivered

so through the spares box I go and find wheels, chassis, old shock towers, Radio gear, etc and Still its not quite there,

along came Percymon to the rescue with a pile of parts :) (Brilliant guy to deal with)

So I fitted the parts, stripped the body which then turned slightly white in some places and repainted it in red after doing the repairs and after all of that its almost complete :)

There's an old venom 13x2 here and a ripmax esc that might find there way in there yet

but so far total cost £31 all in inc delivery parts etc

going to try to complete it for under £40

lets see how it go'es

She is looking good now, and at £17 delivered, it was a bargain
