I've been having a hard time finding NOS white parts. I have come to realize; it is so much easier to just get the whole truck; cheaper in the long run, too.
Why am I so enthralled by the old school white parts?
I hope there's no subliminal message hidden there somewhere.

yer lucky... i had a 350 buck snipe on that up until the last couple hours. the only reason i canceled it was because it wasnt a team truck. (and i've spent way too much money on the nats...)
All these little guys become relegated to "supreme shelf" commader duty.
I emailed the gardencityrc fellow about the rest of the white parts, notice the arms are black. He assured me "she is all white."
Guess that means he must have the arms elsewhere. I hope.
This is the last one I was looking for, GT wise. I'll post pictures as soon as I receive it. BTW, its not a "she", this is my new little guy.
I was second in line, sorry for running up the price. I saw it and just thought to myself, I couldn't let it go for what it was at during the last few hours.

I was hoping to hear that. I hate to see the unused ones turn into runners. Now, if they have a few runs and scratches on 'em, that's a different story. Hope he does have all the white parts... that body is awesome.
Team trucks used one piece wheels, grey shocks, ball bearings. Hope you get the white arms (bummer about the missing brake parts and white throttle servo wheel). White GT's are awesome.
Here's my admittedly still filthy uber early 7060 Team Truck:
That's a sweet deal right there. Very nice score indeed!
Looks like the only white parts you are missing is the arms. Just get some white arms to complete the package. The brake parts you are missing are still available new, and haven't changed at all since then, so those will be easy to replace. You're lucky the white plastic hex is still on there, because that would not be easy to replace. Did you get the clutch with it? If so, did it have the spring with it? Another cool bit to look for on there would be the thrust bearing. I'm guessing that one probably has the bushing, but you never know until you look.
That spur gear is the real gem on that truck though. I would just about kill someone to get my hands on one of those LOL......
Very sweet indeed. Please post some more pics of it when you get a chance.
So, finally had my first battery mishap. No puffing before charging (hard case, so might have been internal pressure I didn't see), no unusual readings on the charger. I was on the other side of the room, and heard a loud popping noise when it blew...
Once in a while, usually each year around the quieter holiday season, I find some time to work on one of too many projects... I always wanted to build an 870C with the narrow chassis. Still in progress, but I thought I share it already with you...

Very impressive work there. I have the same chassis, and you did a great job with all the details. What Lunsford lengths did you end up purchasing?
I just checked my last order and it must have been those for both kits (the lipo and the 6-cell...
So I have a Hitec 645MG servo on the way along with a castle sidewinder & 3800kv motor . Just wondering if I should also be thinking about replacing the old original steering bellcrank with something different than the factory plastic parts...? I...

During one of my Iraqi vacations we built a few tracks. I ran my T4 since I couldn't get nitro. It was a FT and most of the other guys were inexperienced Emaxx drivers. Needless to say if they could catch me or jump off the track, I often took a lot...
