    To be honest the stickers are going to be the hardest part about a 'special' build 8) We've made up some before but found they were not waterproof and all smudged as soon as we tried to clean the shell:I John might be able to help out here though they have to be suitable for plastic though or the shell might 'melt':approve:

    Wa-hey, you're all still alive!

    Big C - that's no excuse!

    I will be bringing the collection tin (baked beans and tomato sauce rinsed out) with me on every run between now and the event!:approve:

    The idea of a 'special' rc car sounds great, something a bit special!

    As for hassling dealers, not sure if there are any special, kind and generous ones out there willing to show that they are more special than the next one by providing something wonderful to be auctioned to help the poor kiddies!:(

    Julz, how about setting a paypal account up - for charitable donations and also for making donations to the rc car idea if people think it is a good one.

    Julz - of course they will only read this if they enter the thread - the title of which probably scares them off in the first place! Perhaps a similarly worded email to all the "known" dealers on the site and a specific thread just for them might spur them to a bitof "my dealerships better than yours" kinda banter!!
