Thats fairly accurate as fars as pricing goes. given the fact you bought toy grade originally due to price and looks, I suppose thats what you want to retain most. I think you should look into measuring the wheelbase size, etc. I think it might fit on an Team Associated RC18 which can be found for cheap. You could put the body on and get some similar wheels, and other mods. I believe I've seen one in a stoore before, and I think by scale its kind of around 1/18. Also check out Losi's cars. Theyre great quality, and perfect for beginners. The 1/18 Mini Highroller is great, and the LR3 may fit just about perfect. If you know of or can measure the car, I'd be happy to help you along. I'm looking forward to maybe seeing the build.
