I can't find any reference online for this, in fact that is why I am on rcmates! it is mint in box, so I am on the fence of build it out and drive it, or sell it for hundreds of dollars to someone who would find that valuable. I paid $50 for it at the RC Swap meet in Lebanon Ohio

Just an occasional pic of your progress would be nice, but a build log would be excellent. I find that I forget to shoot some pics when I'm in the flow of building, I just don't want to stop building to take that photo😄

Amen to that mate. I was watching TV, sat on the bed. Next thing I know, I'd built the gearbox! I seriously need to get a life, lol 😛

Been looking for one of these for a long time. Then just like buses, two turn up on the same day! Had to have this one though, because it's untouched. The previous owner passed away, so I'll build it and show it in the honour of him.

Nice! Does it have the Shell stickers? The tank is so nice and shiny, you might want to wear gloves when building😄

It does mate!
I've got a running chassis, so far. The plan is to run it behind the Mack at the show, with the Mrs driving. So yesterday afternoon, she was practicing. More practice needed, is all I'm saying!
I definitely plan to use gloves when constructing the can. It's truly a thing of beauty. I can imagine that it'll need a good polish every month or so though.
