| description | This body shell was bought from Volksrod after its last outing when it rolled .However , is not over until etc. etc. and i dont hear any singing. So it is now back together .Shown here on 2 different chassis. I tried out a steering wheel dashboard mod to make it look like the steering column has a direction and purpose instead of pointing at the sky
UPDATE :- built up an old scorcher nose from a 'saved from the bin' nose and headlamp buckets , plastic card over the lenses and chrome tape in the turn signal holes for effect p/card number plate .This buggy runs with an original msc !! and those 915's for more grip

Looking good mate, fantastic work.
Thanks Steve
This thing is GREAT!!! Nice job fixing it from the roll!!!
Sweet as Candy!...Well Ok, Just the Toffee on Top!
I agree and the Matt black nose is now sold off (old pic)
Picture 1 is the best choice. Don't like the matt black nose cone.
thats a really nice body! Like the roll bar behind the side windows and the rear fenders. Pretty original car!
The chrome wheels came from Ebay - the fronts i won in an auction and the rears are from TEAMCRP as a buy it now
Great Baja! and really many decals on it
Awesome looking scorcher!, great job! where did you get the chrome wheels?
Now I wish I had put my order in for RR front tires. Maybe if I find something to trade for them around here. Great job, good looking buggy here Keven.
Hi Rookie69 - there are no torsion bars on the rear , just the original dampers with custom made adjustable coil over spring kits which are fitted to the front too , you can just see the front spring kit in the 1st pic
That colour looks sweet. I notice that the rear wheels don't sit on an angle in the first pic. Is there some sort of suspension mod back there?
I believe the decals are sponsor sheet types , i resprayed the bronze top after the repairs and i added some sponsor decals where they overlap the 2 colours as i had to peel off the original ones to repair and paint- then laquered the lot the 1st chassis also features my own custom coil- over shock kits which fit the original SRB dampers and a box art front bumper
looks great were did he get the decals!
Very cool, love the look of this machine, 1st pic gold and bronze is nice. Wheel mod is sweet, Nice nice nice
