Here's a couple of pictures of my Le Mans collection to date. I thought they should have a good home. Enjoy, Chris.

Thanks for the kind words you blokes. Unfortunately Fakiee, I don't have any of my old cars. No photos either. I own four buggies now, all bought in the last three years. I've attached another photo of my only other Le Mans motor. It's a 480T can, 480 Gold endbell (painted green) and a Parma 19x2 ar...

Thanks Lowgear and Tagger. As far as I know Tagger, the 240ST is a 22 turn single wind motor. I've owned two of them. Ones in my collection and the other used to power my Tamiya M01 Mini back in '95. Updated photo time.

You can count the Super Stock 20 and 34 as Le Mans motors Kym. It's on the instructions that come with the motors.

Look great Mike!

Any body off shots?

I' m going to ask before anybody else does.

Tamiya's rereleased their SRB diff with a new part number 54897. From the pictures it looks to be identical to the 84113 diff. At least the crazy prices these things fetch will stop....... for a while.

After the fires there comes a new threat......

A bit of history too.

Very nice. 240SB, 240E and 360E to go. You'll then have all ten, three piece Le Mans motors.

I thought I'd start this thread to show the differences between early to late Coyotes. There was a thread on this but all the pictures are gone. If you have any extra info to add please do so.

First up, suspension arms. Early on the left and later on the right.

Next up, crown gears and pinion. Believe it or not, there's four different materials used for the crown gears. In the picture is nylon, aluminium, steel and stainless steel. The pinion here is steel and is grub screwed on. The only other material that I know that SG used was black nylon which slid o...

The chassis. Early chassis' had a long slot in the side of them indicated in this photo by the top chassis rail with the red rectangle on it. I haven't got an early one so this will have to do. Later on the bottom.

Diff gears. Early gears were the black nylon variety and were also notorious for self destruction. Later replaced by steel.

Early nip on the left and later steel on the right.
