Sith Lord,
Wednesday the 12th of December 2012, I received my FAV (2011) I was wondering about what color the paint that was used on your 1980 Tamiya Sand Rover. My wife does not want OD green. If I have it sand color I will not be able to find the FAV in the dirt. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated.

Are you talking about my Camo painted FAV, Ben? I don't and never had a Sand Rover.

Got mine close to finished

Ditched the Mad Max theme for a Baja racer theme to match my sand scorcher

Cheers, yes the yeah racing titanium ones that MadRacer put me onto. I'm getting some small diameter rc channel led's for the tail lights, and do something with the wheels, either alloy or get the originals plastic chromed.

If anyone is interested, I am (reluctantly) going to sell my FAV.

I have offered it first to the guru who originally painted it in the magnificent "Urban Camo" and await a reply.

Pick up preferred

Are you using Photobucket (or similar) or just trying to attach through the post reply. You can't do the 'quick reply' option.
