Default Unusual Vintage Buggy Wheels, '4x4' Option, and Giveaway

CHECK OUT THE 'Rear Tires On Front' 4x4 Option!

So! I've been way into some Re-Re Buggies lately- The Scorpion, Tomahawk, Wild One & the like. These are fairly inexpensive, classic cars that I've been wanting for some time. I get 'em & build 'em & go about looking up stuff about 'em: First thing I notice is, they have a common flaw- There is about Nyet for wheels as these use odd drives. What a Crime! I also notice a lot of Chaps want to put rear tires on the front for a Unique, Beefy, Baja look. It becomes apparent that there is only one shop that can fix this, and it happens to be on my property- Lucky eh?

These wheels use only the Tamiya Sandblaster 915-size tires and similar that are used on the Tamiya Brat, Rough Rider, etc. The 915's are awesome, so those are what is recommended but there are one or two others out there. These wheels use the direct Pin Drive & dispense with all the other odd nonsense that makes 'em so bloody hard to find anything different. Googling these cars made me realize most were virtually identical, MUST FIX!

Now, of course I'm s'posed to sell you on these, mmmDuh. However, it is quite seriously that I tell you I put these on my Tomo & ESPECIALLY the Wild One, and set them by the TV for the last few days. I'm constantly amazed how Bad-*** these look, and they keep growing on me the more I look at 'em. Neither car will ever have anything but these on 'em ever again.


More pics here! Product Pics - cazan



DESCRIPTIONS
Standard Front/Rear: Pretty Self-Expanatory here. Rears & Front Smaller wheels.
'4x4' All Rear Tires: These take rears all 'Round! I anticipate these will be the best sellers- Totally Change Up the Style, and Serious-Up the Attitude. They take bearings in the front, just bolt-on with no fiddling around or cutting up. The Answer to a lot of prayers!

PRICING, SPARES, and Possible DISCOUNT!
Wheelsets are $99.99 USD Shipped in the US: Please add $12 per whole order for Int'l.


BUT, if you Pay Up Front for your Order (No Deposit) you can get them for ONLY $89.99 PER SET ($10 savings!) Woot! (See Below)

-Spares are available for $24.99 each, Specify Front or Rear - See 'Ordering Checklist' Below





BE ADVISED- Please Read!

All Wheelsets come with: 4 wheels, 4 Hex Axle Nuts (Not engraved, photos used what I had onhand), 0-80 Screws & Most Importantly,a pair of Spacers for the Rears (Not shown) that lets you mount them on longer axles- The Wild One, for instance. If ya don't need 'em fine, but if ya do they're included!

The SRB's are straight bolt-ons. The Scorp & Tomo fronts will need Four, 4x11x4 bearings- Just a buch each here if ya need 'em-
4x11 Bearing 4x11x4 Metal Bearing 694ZZ The Wild One may require a 1-2mm. front washer and/or perhaps require a TINY bit of trimming of the front ball joint/knuckle are area- VERY little, but just tellin' ya straight so no one freaks out.

As the rears are drilled for the rear axle, I'll need to know if you want Tamiya or Kyosho wheels- Checklist below.

Did scalecrawler18 claim his prize? Just wondering since they never posted a thank you or anything. Maybe they can post a pic of the winnings later!!

Keep up the great work Chris, can't wait to see what you come up with next!

The winner PMd me about also ordering a spare front wheel to go with the prize, no address mentioned: It's been 7 days today. He was PMd a couple hours ago and advised that no address by tomorrow & I may have to pick another winner, so......There's only 1 rule, and that was enacted as having to chase down winners makes me feel like the prize is not worth their attention so they won't mind losing it. Stay tuned. Chris REC.

Since the other fella didn't claim this does this mean I could still enter? If so I would like to throw my hat in the ring.
If not I wish I would have seen this earlier.....

Well, no message, no address, and the required time has elapsed by an extra 2 days: I am forced to choose another winner. Usually the prize is just absorbed (i.e., I keep 'em) but the way things went I think picking another chap is appropriate. They must be from the original posters to be as fair as possible, so the RNG picked #3, Nerdy149! (I mean 'Nerby', nyuk.) Same goes Mate, you have seven days to get me your mailling address! If not, Zippoman gets 'em by default & this will all be over....More to come Gents & Ladies, Chris REC
