Ahh, so you got that motor. I'm glad I didn't bid you up. Nice score!
Thanks, I appreciate it pal :lol: It was pure coincidence that a new 19x1 armature came with it (even though its a Trinity/Epic brand and not Kyosho or whatever brand armatures came in the old Le Mans motors), since I just found out one of my Le Mans 240S motors had a double wind armature and not a 19x1 that it's suppose to be. At least it'll now have the correct turn and wind armature.

I thought the old Le Mans 240S was a 24X1, fixed timing & bushings - am I thinking of the wrong motor? The local track (back them) let me run it in Stock Monster Truck as the owner said the motor was garbage anyway. I set the track record that night.

240ST is 22x1, fixed timing & bushings.

240S is 19x1 mod w/ bearings.

480S is 24x1 mod w/ bearings.

Edit: I fudged that up. Correction in bold.

I really like these rebuild kits associated made. This goes with the rear rebuild kit. Did they make these for any of the stealth cars?

I did ask last week on thursday to someone who had a car listed for few months if it was still available, and luckily, it happened to be available. It took few days before it was actually sent, to the point I was a bit worried this would never come...

It arrived today.

The bug body is really nice, and it will probably finish on another chassis, and it hides something else...

Hirobo Zerda :). The roll cage is a puzzle, there is a few issues I spotted already on the pictures one week ago, but nothing too difficult, I think.
And there is even a old Futaba ESC in working state...
I buy kits to build and ru(i)n them :-)

If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

All because I just wanted the box. On the bright side, I almost have enough spare parts to complete the partial unit, which I think needs to be a B4 factory team in lieu of a T4.

Oh, and if someone would like that awful hideous looking body (JConcepts I think), cover shipping and it's yours. It's actually in really good condition. No cracks nor broken at all. I just can't stand the shape/design of it.
