Woohoo!!! I think I made a good purchase with this ebay auction!

I got the truck pictured below and it came with the following:

* thorp dirt burner transmission

* thorp slider axles

* thorp clamping hubs

* crp rear skid plate

* crp rear bumper

* ball bearings all around

* aluminum shocks

* novak esc (forward only, need to change this)

* parma body

Once I get the parts I want off of this truck I'll eventually have a rolling chassis up for sale...

Now all I'll need is a new motor and a new esc! woohoo!

It looks like it's in good condition also. You have to ask yourself, what was the previous owner thinking when He picked that color of Blue?

[jimbo858]

true... true... which is why I'm desperately looking for a "how to" on stripping lexan...

Nice Buy!

Didn't see that one listed.. Did you get it BIN?

Gotta love the hidden bonuses! I bought a Mountaineer a while back and the owner said he had some extras 'lying around' that he would throw in. To my suprise it was a complete set of unused decals and glass!!!

nope sheer luck... regular ebay auction... AND they seller was good with communication and quick with delivery. I got it cause I needed some parts off of it to complete my old Blackfoot that I'm trying to repair. then when I got it I noticed all of the other hop ups... woohoo!

[OCD]

WooHoo Indeed!

It's nice to hear that you had a good experience with the seller as well. Rare is the 'good deal' and a friendly/efficient seller!

Always makes me wonder why so many people put the tyres on back to front though...

[jimbo858]

me too... no worries though... it's already been fixed...[]

You can still buy these bodies from Parma if you don't want to strip it.
