I was watching that one. It did look really nice, just with that odd little chassis cutout.

I’m thinking a very poorly placed on/off switch :roll:

Me……. I race for me.
That’s impossible, I was told you need a sponsor to race.

I thought that too. A hard landing from a jump could switch it off.

A giant stash of parts.

A pile of axles, hinge pins, dogbones, turnbuckles, shock shafts, and some other random parts.

A six gear transmission, rear suspension, truck bellcranks (molded link!), trimmed bulkhead, and JG bumper.

These are parts for several different vehicles, but the trimmed bulkhead and huge JG bumper might be hints for a couple.
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.

If you haven’t done so already, checkout mini-lathe.com. I learned how to machine with one of these - they are great and there are mods to make it even better. Chris at Littlemachineshop.com is very helpful and has good quality parts.

New toys to play with! Now I just need to decide what to make it into. The wheels might not be going with this chassis... or maybe?

Something a little unusual for me: a modern buggy.
I don't know if this means that I've finally learned to accept the modern stuff
or if it means that I'm just desperate to build a new buggy from kit - probably some of both. :D

A load of NOS parts came my way for my T3, TC3, eGT, B4 fleet. Much thanks to R6cowboy for sharing access to an awesome LHS.

Latest Ebay purchase, A Near mint late Edinger with box and manual. Motor has Edinger address (and the box) and it has 4 groove tires in front with no writing/ logo on any of them. Based on what I have learned here I would say pretty sure 1986 vintage. Body is rough but has the early squiggly lines for the window net. Now all I have to figure out is how to get photos from my Android onto my Mac book...They don't play well together.
