This is another sand buggy from early 80's ! This kind of off-road ran through the areas of Western America together with its lovely antagonist Baja bug! Its chassis was built with tubularmetal and equipped with a tuned-up Volkswagen(or Chevrolet) engine that allowed a tremendous speed on the sand !!! I remember  an episode of "Bionic woman" a pretty nice baja  race with this buggy: Jamie sat next to the driver and ran free into the desert!!!

As all these 1/10 scale racing buggy the Rough rider is made with durable die-cast alluminium parts and equipped with four indipendent suspension with oil filled shock absorbers!
