Hey guys, here's a neat buggy I picked up on eBay and decided to restore it to it's new condition, I just finished it today and it turned out great, it was actually in pretty good condition when it came for being from 1988 and after a good cleaning and complete rebuild it's back to looking like new.

The upgrades it has are:

Futaba MC210CB ESC
Futaba steering servo
Losi rear tires(they look to be never used)
Powerpole plugs
Traxxas Stinger motor(not shown but it's on there now)

Other than that the buggy is stock and I plan to keep it that way. I love the gold aluminum parts it has, they really shine! This isn't going to be a basher but I will drive her some, I also got a Bullet roller in the deal and I'm going to make it into a basher.

Here's a few pics of the finished project:

Man, that brings back memories! I had a Hawk, which I think was based on the Bullet! Fun vehicles!
