RE: No one bid on this plz (R/C car body)

No chance. That body was built for early 80's 1/12th scale pan cars like
those from Associated at the time (remember the RC-12?). They're flat little
carpet/asphalt racers with foam tires and a suspension that relies on the
twisting of a fiberglass plate attached to the rear drivetrain pod.

I'm really bummed because I saw one of the really early Associated cars on
eBay last week, and it would have been SO COOL to have such an old-skool
body on such an old-skool chassis!
