I found a Baja Bug!!!!!!!!!! Claims to be a VW Beetle 1969. Baja kit close to one I've seen on some real ones, single carb engine with a stinger and cage.

oh and a yellow Racetruck that looks kinda like a Bowler Wildcat. Or maybe I need drug tested. Ok, frizzen has NO earthly clue what the hell it's supposed to be. It's kinda cool looking though

Ha, I made Cabo post something!!! Nice Pic! (Wow, 11100 posts.)

Since the Holey Bibley was invoked against me, Guess I might as well show em.

I Destickered the Baja. I wasn't feeling the #49 with yellow/black checkerboard stickers with airbubbles.

Ugh.

You stupid bastard! What the hell is that? I've shat things that look more scale and offroad worthy than those! You should spit on it, set it on fire, and smash it with a hamer.

Those belong on a ZZ-M as much as a Hello Kitty body would! Nobody gives a shit about the plastic bodies you found that kinda fit if you pretend hard enough, now shut up. Or better yet, drive something big over them!

WTH? you prick. What do you know? Go back to the kiddie table at microRC and suck your lolipop in peace.
And tell your mommy I think I left my cell phone somewhere in her bedroom. The bedsheets got all messed up, and may be somewhere in them or maybe even in the cracks of the couch. While hightailing it out of there, I found about a dozen other ones, but not one was mine.... :shock:

:lol:

I like the Baja, except the rear quarter windows are not right.
The Dakar racer thingy looks wierd, but has potential I guess.

I'll check out the stores while on the way to Dr monday, and the antibiotics had better work on whatever it is she gave me....... :?

I think the yellow one is a Bowler Wildcat, with a Bowler Nemesis nose, some extra scoops, extra goofy looking spoiler, extra lights, and something heavy landed on the roof to flatten it that much.

The rear quarter windows of the Baja are better than the rear window, it looks a lot like the window on a radical chop. My only complaint about the side windows was that they forgot the upper window seal on the door windows, which makes the back windows look a bit low. But it works MUCH better as a Baja on the ZZ-M than the ZZ Type-1 body does!


Hmmm, I do still need to track down a couple Q-steer, Q-steer Buggies...

I was arguing with myself.
My post was missed because the post was made before work, the pics were put in as an edit after work once I got them chopped enough for mockup pics as I said they would be, and nobody noticed it for a couple days. I hate posting something that's just a "BUMP", so I always go off on frizzen about how his stuff is crap and nobody cares. (I hate that fucking fucker!)

Nice bicker Sidewinder. Little late but you made up with your enthusiasm.


So, to recap:
My Bowler-thing will beat yours.
My Defender beats yours!
My Dakar truck beats yours!!
My Baja bug beats yours, even without body mounts finalized!!!
