Default IDENTIFY this vehicle! :D

My friend is offering me this brushless truggy. Anybody got any ideas what it is? It looks like it has been converted to electric...and it kinda looks like an Ofna, but other than that I'm clueless.

Well, if you go by what is on the body. It is a GS Racing truggy.

GS XUT
like nitro said its an incomplete conversion.
you will need at minimum a servo mount, servo, radio, and battery tray

If it was me converting it I would flip the center diff around to mount the motor forward on the side opposite where the servo goes, and cut a new slit in the chassis so the diff can spin. Them make a new diff top that goes up some so the ESC could be mounted to it, and get 2 battery trays. Also buy some cheap generic servo mount from some manufacturer, and drill 2 holes in the chassis so it could be mounted.
If you are not skilled in fabrication, or working with metal I wouldn't recommend it personally, but if you are semi decent at working with your hands you should be able to pull it off.

There appears to be a squashed smurf under the motor judging by what looks like a hand by the pinion.

All joking aside, it needs a servo mount, a battery tray and ideally a servo to really be worth picking up.
