G scale MDC Big Hustler

I've been watching MDC on eBay for the last couple years. Not much shows up. There have been a couple Big Hustler's, but both went for more than I thought they were worth. I think the mechanism is the same as used in the MDC speeder, which uses an HO 12 VDC max motor. A guy was selling MDC Big Hustler body parts last winter, that one could perhaps use with a speeder chassis. On the other hand, several Aristo and USA Trains power trucks repeatedly show up on eBay. It would be a very easy kit bash project to build simple chassis from Evergreen plastic shapes, or kit-bash the engine compartment and cab from an old Atlas O-scale 0-C-0 diesel switcher onto an Aristo or USA power truck, and have a better product.

There are two currently on eBay - search g gauge for MDC. Geezer
