Grabbed this pan car at the pit stop. I actually bought two of them. I took all the best parts and made one decent car. Heres the result after alot of cleaning and a lot of work.

Can anyone tell me what kind of rear axle fits this? if they have one I would like it. Also what model car is this? I know its pretty old. One more thing is this a type of plastic I can die.

Unsure of car looks like Old Associated RC-12. I think that it'll take the current RC-12L rear axle and spacers. Might be best to find someone with a 12th scale car and see if it fits.
Most of the older 12th scale cars had nylon plastic parts you could dye.

Its a RC 12L. Can't wait to dye the parts. do you think its ok if I leave all the metal parts on? I don't think it will hurt them.

Steel+Water is never a good combo it equals rust. I'd remove the metal.

Green is good, SG219 and Kawasaki would be proud.
Of course I think purple (Plum Crazy?) would be cool too.
I know, Magenta, you would definitely tell it's yours.
