Chilihook 51 Posted December 6, 2007 (edited) I can't wait to start tearing it apart! It'll have to wait till after the holidays... I hope I can wait that long. You can tell from the pics that the car has seen better days, but it's all there, and a little bit extra. Two batteries, quick charger, Futaba Attack radio, flyers, pamphlets, paint and the manual. For $66, I think I did okay. Edited January 9, 2018 by Chilihook bad photobucket links Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Live Steam Mad 17 Posted December 7, 2007 Corr, lovely, bargain of the month, you even got a vintage Tamiya RC Guide Book and a lovely box with nice condition box art, you lucky thing! I thought I was lucky the other week, a nice condition Optima with tyres and wheels that were in great condition for 60 GBP, but not 60 USD!! Cool! Cheers, Alistair G.

Chilihook 51 Posted December 7, 2007 The wear and tear on the car look better in photos than it actually is. I don't what the PO did to the front end, but the bumper's bent and the left front ("clip" for lack of a better term) that holds the wheel in place and the steering knuckle has been stretched waaaaay out of shape. That ought to be an interesting fix when the time comes... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
europro975 75 Posted December 7, 2007 Nice pick up Looks like you'll need a rear wing: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Vintage-Tamiya-58051...VQQcmdZViewItem I hope the chassis is OK?? As you'll need to spend more than $66 just to get a new one. Last fox chassis that sold on the bay was around $80-90 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
