description  And here it is the sand scorcher i've buied from Tc member 'Steerfromtherear'. It was an ebay auction i loose. I used myibay for automatic bidding, but for some reason i loose the auction even if i bidded higher than winner, probably 'cause he refused bidding from Italy, i don't know. I was sad 'cause i really liked it so much! But the luck was on my side and the fate really wanted we had to stay together LOL ! About one week later when i loose my hopes (however i've asked him to make another ss body for me like that) i received a mail from steerfromtherar telling me that the auction winner didn't paied for it, and he was very disappointed and angry, and he remembered i was interested in his sand scorcher body so he made me an offer, i have made him a little bit lower offer and the deal was finally done!It was mine! This wonder is at home now! It's in a good place as you can see now! And in good company! I fitted the body on my original Rough Rider chassis i am planning to sell. Pics are not so good, I'll make some better asap. Then i'll polish the rear metal cage and apply a front alloy bumper. I am not sure if applying decals on it ond leave it like it is! Suggestions are really appreciated...and comments too, like always.

Thanks Slimmy, maybe the taste is inherited from my grandpa..he was a painter and sculptor, over a Great man.

Err, not really, the body has to be a shelf but the chassis with another of my sand scorcher shells for sure!

Thats a beautiful paint job. I would put some vintage style stickers on it. I also love the wheels and tire combo. You got great taste. Congrats on a sweet ride.
