Pro-Line full fendered Baja Bug body

Posted by Jeff @ 8:45 pm. Filed in: New Products, Pro-Line

Here’s something cool from Pro-Line. A Volkswagen Bug body that actually has fenders on it. How novel. It actually casts a much different attitude than all the fenderless beetle bodies that populate the alternative-style short course landscape. This new vision of an old body is officially licensed by Volkswagen, so you can expect all the decals necessary to replicate the look of the real thing, logos and all. A spoiler with mounting hardware, window masks, and overspray film are also included. The Volkswagen Full Fender Baja Bug body is available now at a list price of $39.95. Unfortunately it’s only made to fit the Slash and Slash 4×4 right now.

Check out the Pro-Line website for more info.

Pro-Line 1:10 Closed Cell Buggy Inserts

Posted by Brian @ 2:12 pm. Filed in: Pro-Line

New from Pro-Line are these rear 1:10 scale Closed Cell Buggy Inserts. People are starting to learn that inserts can make a real difference on the track. I remember years ago where just any type of foam to keep the tire from caving in was enough, and now the technology has improved so much, that these can really make a difference.

Check out the Pro-Line web page for details.

Pro-Line Pick by Kit tool

Posted by Jeff @ 2:07 pm. Filed in: Pro-Line

We’ve all been there. Standing in front of a store shelf looking at all kinds of different products, not knowing which one to pick. Saying to ourselves “If only there were some kind of tool or guide to help me figure out which one of these products I need!” But nope, there never was, and you went home with a 15 amp fuse when you really needed a 50 watt lightbulb. Oh those lightbulbs and fuses… so similar… so confusing. But be confused no more! The web team at Pro-Line has worked up a new tool to help you figure out what products you need. Sure, the Pro-Line Pick by Kit tool can’t help you with your fuses/lightbulbs problem, but it can help you pick out the accessories that will fit your car or truck. The tool is broken down into multiple categories, then each category features multiple kits. Just find your car or truck and the Pick by Kit tool will magically show you all the tires, bodies, wheels, and other accessories that were made for your car.
