No but i would love to know???

It doesnt seem to be a std car.

It has a red dot on the chassis like they put on at the euro's.

It seems to have BK2 arms and hubs and cvd's but a std xxx transmission.

Never rebuilt a std xxx diff so dont now if its std but it has steel outdrives with the silver insert in it. Very confusing i hope ive rebuilt it right.

The reason I ask is, it looks like my old car. If it is, then it's my first Losi and the car I used to make my first National A.

Mine was far from standard and had pretty much every mod available at the time. I didn't have the threaded shock back then as they hadn't even been invented (although even now it hasn't got a complete set )

They havent got a clue where the car was bought from other than ebay so that was helpful. But phil channon said that he had seen the body before at frodsham. So the plot thickens.

Its also now dirty and broken.

But the diff worked which was the best bit.

Did sh*t myself a little when the speedo didnt work after i had rewired it. Fortunatly turned out to be a fualty switch.

Can't imagine it's the same body as I had all those years back (7+ years). The shell I ran was a full on USofA tribute (stars and stripes everywhere). I reckon I must still have some photos somewhere.

Yea the shell on it the momment defently isnt you phil defently no green. It has flames and has Undertaker Kane writen down each side lol

Car has lots of tirinty bits on it. It has early trinity shock bushings the ones without the little balls on them.

When a car runs at the euro's it has a small dot of nail varnish on it are they colour coded for example say red was one year then the next year was blue then green or something or are they always red???

Dig out the picture phil get them scanned in lol.
