Yes mate, I saw this.... very much a nice piece of kit, for sure.

@Fun41 that's a nice and fairly rare truck you have there.... looks to have started as a Nitro 21XT or 21X-S touring car version, with the upgraded cooling head. I have one that I still have to put back together.... have the blue head and also a 2-speed to go in it, but it's very much in the pile with the rest of the Nitro 10s and parts.

Great stuff mate! Now, show us the others!

Not sure why my old pictures of this car are so bad. This Nitro I am told is a XS. It have a second generation Desert Strom body on it just like my first post car.
I don't run this car or the next car. Anytime I can come across a new part for this an the XT21 (next car) . I'll tear them down and replace the pasts and hang it back up over my work bench.

That looks to be in very fine condition, mate.... nice pickup! Wish all mine looked that good :roll: :oops: :(

Those 'natural' wheels are in pretty good condition too, which is a bonus... especially if you want to paint a body in a colour scheme that doesn't match yellow wheels!!!

If there's manuals you don't have, just say which ones.... most are available online, and I have scanned most of my Nitro 10 manuals as well, so can supply if needed.

It's been some time since I posted . Family matters worked out great but then came Florence. Picture shows the Nitro 10 in the work shop before it hit. The other are of what happen to the shop. It was two weeks before I could get to it. Engine locked up and some nut and bolts started to rust. I did get a change to take it apart but that was all. I'm going to build it back as a 911 sport on road. It has the front bumper for the 190 Evolution. I got a 1991 911 body but I need the front bumper number U-392W from the manual I got. Don't know what it looks like but it's got to be a little smaller because of the body post. I got my work shop back yesterday. Now it time to rebuild the shop.

Damn mate, not the best thing to have happen.... hopefully the workshop rebuild will be relatively painless.

911 front bumper looks like this:
