if you get another one dump the body and use the  chassis as is in your pic you can make a cool vehicle like something out of the mad max movies

DURR:

that's exactly what i was thinking when i was working on this corolla WRC:

it really looks pretty good w/o the body on (except 4 that no engine thing, lol) ! as 4 the pug, i'd love 2 find another heller 1/43 kit, but i think i'll have 2 splurge & get the racing 43 kit in white metal because i haven't tried one of their kits yet.

here r the latest pix of the pug:

fuel filler neck added behind the driver's seat, need 2 touch up the wheel "holes" w/ flat blk...

speedline & michelin decals added

tricolore decal added 2 roof

aluminum tube exhaust pipe & decals added 2 rear

paint touch-up needed here & there, as usual...

frosty

in case anyone is still interested, here r the latest pix of my lil' pug:

still need 2 do paint touchup on the wheels & a few other places... but getting there anyhow !

A noce build. Yes 43rd is the way to go, I love the scale because of the huge variety of cars modelled, pity about the price.

If I recall this Pug was used only on desert rallies and maybe Pikes Peak? It was developed after Group B was outlawed. The major difference between the 205 T16 E2 is the lengthened body - the B pillar is much bigger.

This is so sad all I see is little red X's!
