Fell off the back of a truck?

I wish, found this in the wrong section in ebay. other then the parts that are missing it's in very good nic. I think the diffs a shot though

Another day in the office, another couple of deliveries.....

Firstly, some Losi short course parts for my XXX- SCT - a full set of beadlock wheels (to match the tyres I got last week) and a set of diff outputs Plus, some Tamiya parts I got for the cost of postage..... some M05, TA05 and FF03 sprues... ...and almost a complete TA02 in parts.
The TA02 is a strange lot.... one set each of blue and black shocks, a pair of lower arms I've never seen before, a (Manta Ray) tub that's lighter than the usual black ones, and not one but TWO battery stoppers! Sadly, didn't have the motor mount I was hoping for, to replace the broken one I have in my Blazing Star.... but I can see this getting rebuilt as a TA02, with a cool Tamiya touring body added - maybe the M3.

Good times!

Jumbo kongs on wheels, shock mounts, battery tray, 4:1 gear reducers and metal internal gears…

Jumbo Kongs are awesome!

Got my second pair of Cross drives for my Kyosho Superten FW04 build.

Nothing exciting, but necessary.

That sure is a lot of 12mm hexes...

The gray/gun metal ones are 14mm hexes, used in conjunction with certain aftermarket wheels. One of my T4's was an original T4 which did not come with front hexes, only rears. This is the one I made into an on-road specific unit and had intentions to use my old school titanium non-hex front axles, but lack of non-hex wheels options swayed me to make the switch to front hexes. Therefore had to get two more.

Not really the post, but 150 mile round trip for a 'local' pick up. Worth the $60 in gas...LOL

Very nicely machined, anodized after being machined. Seller stated he got it from 'a professional' driver. Also picked up a decent TQ10 converted into a monster truck (no photo of that).

A gaggle of Litesinks came my way. 2 for Ultimas, 2 multi-compatible "pan car" units, and 1 for a Bolink Invader/Eliminator.

I got an Ultima in the post today. I have a Pro XL with a broken chassis that I'm going to rebuild. I bought the one I received today because the chassis in the grainy photos resembled the Pro XL chassis. Turns out what I bought was even better. This is what I have after stripping it down.
A mint Duratrax Ultima Pro graphite chassis with 30° kick up. Pretty awesome.

A bunch of parts arrived from The Optima House today



And that included my Nichimo chassis, as this allowed both my friend from The Optima House and myself to save some shipment costs

Another Nosram only this one works

...but the other one was red. Is yellow better than red?

I haven’t been buying much lately but just got this cool Team Losi A4221. Wing mounts, body & battery posts, clips..a lot of good stuff in one package.
