proline have released the 'bushwacker' looks a lot like a 40 to me Wink




interesting also is the 'mainstreaming' of crawling in the states, as indicated by rc zone, very main stream site but look 'socal' crawling gets a run!... http://forums.radiocontrolzone.com/forumdisplay.php?f=232

About time! I've been trying to source the FJ40 for ages, everyone who had one either wanted a mint, or it was painted in shite colours... Will definately be buying a few shells, shelf queen, basher and street... Wonder if I can adapt one to an on-road and have a low rider Very Happy

Dam spewin i painted mine! was dissapointed that the original proline ones had a drip on the rear window.. Also with so many "sharp edges" they tend to break rather than bend... could also have something to do with the way i drive..... Embarassed

Yeah I have the new wanker lids in stock now, they are acctually better than the old 40 because they dont have the maxx exhaust hole in the door, they also have some cleaner lines. Only down side is those extra eyes on the front but you can fix that up real easy.



foolsp33d - Did you have that on a Nitro?

Either way, if you are getting rid of it I will take it off your hands.

Theres a Jap company doing a fairly average (technically) FJ40 monster truck RTR - but with a very nice ABS body. Would be awesome on a Tamiya XC chassis or smaller wheelbase monster chassis.

Skynet (?) is the brand. Body looks awesome. A mould off that in lexan would be the ducks guts.

The only problem with the New FJ40's is the new Stickers. If you want some of the old stickers I happen to have a few laying around...PM me if you are interested when you get a New bushwacker body.
