and check out the video section the Cannock bash has footage of a Baja and my Shen qui MT
if you're not racing a Shen qui or similar will set you back £300 and parts from nitrotek are easy enough and FG are the same mostly.
plenty new on ebay cheapest is £285 plus £15 post for a hummer one.
Course if moneys no object an FG Marder would be the one to buy, bit quicker and plentiful spares.

Oh the 1/10 TC with all purple alloy and 3 spoke purple plastic rims?
If so it's a HYPER 10 EP TC look on cmldistribution it's on there. It appears in disguise later on it's under the AC Cobra Body :D
PM me about the truck if it's the Red Mitsubishi, someone else wants it, so I'm not sure yet.
Cheers Tim :thumbs_up:
