I recognize that DT-01! It is the one that helped us raise money for Children in Need last year. Hope it enjoys its new home!

It had not been used since so I thought it was time to move it on. Will miss the DT-02 as well as that was my first big build and hop-up.

Glad they made it across the pond in one piece :-)

theyre beautiful! Just the rear universals have some rust but I can get that off no problem.... and I feel dumb I preemptively bought a DT02 chassis thinking yours would have scratches.............. not a dang one! its going on the shelf and the DT01 will find some great use as it will be a basher to run with the neighbors and neighborhood kids!

 

And today is another day........ this is technically local... but..

Came across 2 Associated B5Ms and a Tekno 410.3 and TLR something or other stadium trucks... and everything in the pics. too good a deal to pass up!

I will say, they are cool but will be sold for the greater good (to pay off my CC debt and help complete some of my Tamiya projects)

 

And then my baby has come back to me.... now in its box!!! and got some paint and decals from @Dojo Dave to finish off my vintage FAV vehicle. Oh and a Futaba Attack III Ive been dying to get a hold of to complete my Vintage Lunchbox too!

The TLR looks like a SCTE 2.0 and the pic shows what looks like a Tekin Pro4 motor.

Got my Batteries today so was able to charge em up and get the new to me Neo Scorcher working.

I was very good and ballraced it first though and have to say it so much faster than I remember the buggies of old. It is a brushless setup and the duration of the new batteries lasted longer than my ability to withstand the cold. 

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Oh an my sons Christmas box arrived (Bush Devil 2) he so loves my old second hand Neo Scorcher just reckons its a pity it wont run on the grass.....lol

Lol, the motor will probably be sold on its own... I’ll have one truck sold as artr and the other a roller, same with the b5ms, or possibly both b5ms will be sold as rollers.... since I have a lot of spares to go with them too.

i do have another large lot coming in which I believe is another 6 cars and a ton of spares

You should put the motor in a lunchbox just for kicks!

Where are you finding all these big lots?  

I picked up one a few years ago and split it up and made a little bit, but I kept a lot of it too.

well the one in the pic i got locally.... he had a bigger lot a couple of weeks ago but I got beat out by some guy on them and this time he messaged me personally last night asking if I wanted this lot.... he sent pics I did basic research of what theyre selling for and had to jump on it. BUT the one coming in is comeing from FLA, and they're with @Dojo Dave he messaged me and told me some guy had a decent lot of cars I said if you pass Ill take it.... he told me to go for it so i messaged the guy and gave him a lower offer than I thought he would take...and he sent me pics of 90% of everything and what turned out to be 4 cars is actually 6...... he bit at my offer and Dave picked them up for me and will ship them off on Monday (sounds like 3 boxes of stuff.... and expensive stuff since Dave mentioned the guy's son was sponsored...

here's a sneak peak of that lot.... the carrying boxes and white box also had stuff too and were included (BTW that's Dave's Kung Pow school).

 

The Large Tamiya lot I picked up a month and a half ago was pure luck... a guy on another RC site listed them but not a single person bit (they dont have many tamiya lovers) and I messaged him and he mentioned he had a lot of "spares" that turned into 50lbs of rc products sent my way as well.

 

Im ecstatic when theyre Tamiya stuff, but with these I should make pretty good money selling them off

Set of duratrax bandito street tires front and rear for my re re optime with jconcept rims because the stock tires suck

Hey its also a SCTE 3.0 It might be the one I keep.... I still dont know. lol The Tekno is nice too.

[Peter_B]

A Hobbywing Quicrun 860 Dual Brushed ESC.

I won it, new, for £6 in an auction the other day. Was a bit dubious as to whether it would actually turn up.

But it has, and from a first look seems legit.

For some reason there's a spare red (battery) wire in the box. Just a length of wire about 3 inches long. No idea why!?

The ESC is destined for my TXT-2 build.

Me to! I've just received through the post the same amount of tyre sets and rims to give my XLS masami a little cosmetic twist
