i had one around 87 i think...i considered it a pos as i had hi end stuff but it was a gift. i donated it after a few years like i make my kids do to those types like i get them...


just a radio shack truck.
 
That helps confirm that it is older then me by a year at least.

Would like to find a first gen ranger body to fit on it.

i had a gen 1 toy and ranger from then as well....s10 too.
 
I've got a brand new 1/10th scale first gen lexan body, still unpainted, just waiting for the right project to come along.

Let me see if I have a pic.
 
If I were you I would try to get copies made of it.

Where did you get it? The cheapest I found was $70.

I found it on ebay for under $20 a few years ago.

Where did you even find one?

I would love to find one that would fit on a SCX10 running gear...

I have a RC truck that is similar but has a little later body style. IIRC I got it for my sixth birthday which would be 1990. I hung on to it because dad had a real bullnose truck. It was the really simple one where you back up so the front axle shifts so you can turn and then goes straight ahead, that style was really common back then (had a Porsche 911 that was the same way)
