Default Attempting to get buggy running...



I am looking to get some parts to get my buggy running but Iam not sure what kind of buggy it is. Its not in the greatest shape but not a wreck. I have most of the parts to put it together but need things like shocks and motor mounts but am not sure where to look due to not knowing the brand. If anyone can help let me know - would be greatly appreciated...

Its a Hot Body lighting 2. good luck on finding parts. I had one and flea Bay and other places like that are going to be the only place to find parts. sometimes you can find someone selling a roller.(buy it if you want to keep that buggy) oh and sometimes you can find a Hobby shop with new old stock. and thats rare. good luck.

If it really is a HB Lightening 2, then parts shouldn't be a problem.

Thank you all for your input. If I get the buggy running will only be for fun not racing or anything. Thanks again.
