Reasonable value of Terra Scorcher

[Baddon]

I have done most of the work to get this up and running and someone is bugging me to sell it to them. I have no idea of value as originally bought as a donner for my Thundershot but its actually in better condition now I have worked on it. Used a lot of parts to get to this stage. Still needs a tub and tires.

 

Box in decent condition but no instructions.

 

If It was on Ebay what might it get (not with wind behind it OR on a bad day) just to I have some idea please? Has full vintage radio gear.

Although you don't have the original wheels/tyres and the colour is not box art, you have a box. (Do you have a chassis cover/driver?)

What is tricky to determine unless you can say otherwise is the condition of the a5 part and the gearboxes.

Split gearbox screw holes are normally apparent when stripping the car down, sometimes hard to see when assembled like you're

Without knowing these things at the moment, I'd say £70-£85 inc. delivery.... 

If you can attest to a good a5 and gearboxes and put new bb's in when you did a rebuild then hopefully £85 to £100

You mention a new chassis is needed, is it split at the screw connections or just general gravel rash?

I do have original tires (in bits) on the original rims, tatty. Dont have the cover or driver.

Changed the A5 part as the part that was there did not have the bit to attach bumper. Mine is part cracked so not ideal but at least looks better as something to fix bumper to. Gearboxs- did not take apart so other than both smooth and easy to turn.

Chassis has the upper front gearbox connector split off, so in effect the front gearbox is held with three screws, I assume this is why the F-R drive shaft had popped out. Also why I had to take front box out to refit it. Thanks for the input. May order a couple of tubs and get this and my Thundershot rebuilt. Do full strip. 

I am being tortured to sell it though!!!

I sold one on ebay a few weeks ago with box for £145 posted. 

Probably better condition than yours (no cracks) and was blue though.

Great runners, keep them both! 😀

Was thinking that myself, see if he wants a Neo Scorcher instead.
