BiggusDitchus 38 Posted July 19, 2010 I didnt remove it chap, will have been a mod, and no thats still linking to auction. Could always explain whats amusing, having looked at it the use of wire and glue was definately unique. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tamiyoman 2 Posted July 19, 2010 I think the accpted method is to say something along the lines of search for "Grasshopper etc etc on ebay" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blazerfrazer 0 Posted July 20, 2010 Ok. its gona be an anti climax now all this fuss, I only had a little chuckkle. Do an international search and use some of these search words: "Tamiya" "Hopper" "Buggy" "Heat" "Sink" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wolfdogstinkus 1893 Posted July 20, 2010 I just found it This is nice looking used buggy. Made by Tamiya. All the shocks, gears, and axles look in good condition. Wheels turn freely and do not bind up or drag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swarm 242 Posted July 20, 2010 I like the + Heat Sink W@W like that is the selling point I guess it needs a selling point looking at its condition. What a pile of junk almost as bad as the RE RE Holiday Buggy I said almost as bad the one on ebay comes with wire no doubt some easy pull apart gearbox system Hop-up actually its jam packed with Hop-Up's that glue filled front end is to make sure it always lands nose first !!!! As I live and breath I never thought I would see the day that a gem like this comes on the market wonders never cease WoW. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonny Retro 12 Posted July 20, 2010 LOL, I thought I'd lashed some things up in my time, but that is an absolute shed Worse than the condition is that someone has actually bid on this ... I think it was wolfdogstinkus - getting a bit of help for the "Worst Presented Car" category at Snetterton in August Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfdogstinkus 1893 Posted July 20, 2010 LOL, I thought I'd lashed some things up in my time, but that is an absolute shed I think it was wolfdogstinkus - getting a bit of help for the "Worst Presented Car" category at Snetterton in August I didn't bid, but it gave me some great inspiration to fix my 1/1 car. If my pumpkin doesn't win, then the compo's fixed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skip665 169 Posted July 20, 2010 Repairing/restoring it might be a bit "Triggers Broom"! This line makes me laugh "The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteelRat 46 Posted July 20, 2010 "A Nice looking used buggy"... and then... "However, the front end has been smacked pretty hard and has been reglued together. Same for the back end. It has glue and wire holding it together but it does function." Just classic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tamiyoman 2 Posted July 20, 2010 I think the word "NAIL" springs to mind lol. I love it where he put "I did not run the car", LMAO, I wonder why that is? (perhaps its so fragile it might only do 3 feet before blowing up like a clown car lol) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blazerfrazer 0 Posted July 20, 2010 i'm gonna bid and put it in my show room Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SKIPP 0 Posted July 21, 2010 dear friends, I bid on this strickley for the titanium bailing wire and carbon fiber epoxy resin.Oh ya, low resistance speed control lube.
