Can anyone help me find a radio controled VW bettle/Baja battery or petrol powered car?? I would prefer off road type. I haven't been able to find a model shop that sells one. If anyone knows of any please post reply.

Thanks Matt

The beetle shell won't fit all chassis as they are shorter. I hope to find one soon!

Thanks

Battery but need to buy a motor and servos. May have to get this one as the rest can't get any.
