Default How do I get myself one of these?

Does anyone know anything about the body on this rig or whose rig it is? The body looks like it has been heavily modified, starting out as a bus and being turned into pickup.

I found this link:
1:10 Large Scale VW Simulation Model Gray RC Bus Toy [RB2T012] : EZBUSTOYS.COM

Also just stumbled across this one:

This one says it's 1/10 scale and lexan!

Sosume - thanks for pointing me in the right direction, the first two you posted links for look like the right ones. I would still be interested knowing whose rig it is, but now I can start pestering Hoosierdady, R2j or Dready into modifying a body for me (I don’t have anywhere near the skills to do it myself).

No problem guys!

If you check that last link I posted, it is actually the lexan body you can purchase and paint.

As for who's truck.....I dunno.

Just did some searching on that picture and came across this thread.

AXIALFEST - JUNE 22-24th, 2012 - Cisco Grove, California

You might pm rig rocker and ask him since he posted the pictures.

You're Welcome!

The first one's I just searched google. I used "1/10 scale VW bus" as the query. That popped up those hits.

The last search I did a picture search, using the images you posted. Again, google images. I copied your picture link into google image search and had a hit. Sorry, old trick.

Pimpin Crawlers on Facebook has a great range, for a price, otherwise there is a 1:10 kombi on amazon

What you're looking at there (as has already been identified) is the 1/10 Maisto hard body VW Samba. It originally sold as a lowrider vehicle.

They're getting hard to find now, but they can still be found one Ebay/Amazon occasionally. They're hands down the best VW Van body that's ever been produced.

I've got one sitting on the shelf waiting for the right motivation..
