For Sale/Trade - Tamiya F103 15th Anniversary


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello:

Alongside my Tamiya Buggy Champ 2009 is a never-run F103 15th Anniversary Special kit. This car has had a GT bumper, antenna mount and plastic battery holder added to allow it to run a Le Mans-style body. Included in the sale will be the original aluminum battery posts and antenna mount, as well as instructions and (if possible) the original box upon request.

The rear damper is used but working well, though it can be excluded if desired from the sale for a $25 CAD discount should all-new parts be a priority.

The car features new Tamiya foam tires and an original Toyota GT-One bodyshell. This body has been painted to depict the #1 Zent GT-One that ran in the 1999 Le Mans 24 Hours as opposed to the #3 Esso Ultron car that finished 2nd in the event. The body has been reinforced at the nose and is duct-taped at strategic points. It looks nice but is not concours-winner quality, with some overspray and poor masking as visible in the photos below.

The car requires an ESC/MSC unit, a radio, receiver and a battery to run it; the basic steering servo and a standard Johnson 540 silver can motor are included. I will be asking for $220 CAD before shipping but am again open to negotiation on the price.

Some images are present below. Keep in mind that the car will essentially be sent as a rolling chassis and will not feature the ESC, battery, radio or receiver unit seen in the chassis picture, and the black Sport-Tuned motor will be substituted for a silver can:

Thank you for looking, and feel free to ask any questions you may have regarding this chassis. It was originally going to be my indoor racer until my current F103RS acquired most of the hop-up parts this kit contained; there are also no Le Mans-style events running in my area anymore. As a result it has never turned a wheel on the ground, and it shows in its good condition. I can provide additional images upon request.

I am bumping this thread and will lower the price to $180 before shipping, which would actually be a bit more in line with the market value of these cars.
