I found this Worlds Car on the local Craigslist. What a basket case. Does anyone see anything funny? Since it needs new arms and nose tubes, I was thinking about finally getting some Dynatech arms and converting over the front end. This ones gonna need some tlc.

Other than the bent shock and tubes - I'd say that one will clean up really well.

If you got it for a good price then I would say you have done well.

cheers

p.s - is the funny thing the original JRX2 rear tires?

is the funny thing that its supposed to have cvd's???? mine has cvds!!

i don't see anything "funny". just a used car in need of some tlc.

looks like a team car with worlds pieces, explains the u joints, 2.0 rear wheels and non machined chassis tub.

the tub is machined, it's just really hard to tell. i thought it was a team car chassis too, at first. but notice how large the couple of 4-40 sized screw holes are down the sides tub compared to the others.

::bows down:: I'm not worthy....okay, when I moved to my laptop with an HD screen, I see the machined areas....

i can only see it on my laptop, too.

Whoever built it put the arm mounts on upside down. The bent shock baffles me. Then there is the large 4-40 screw in the pinion gear. And you can't see it in the photos but there was bailiing wire holding the front arm on.(Not that there's anything wrong with bailing wire or duct tape)

Maybe the 4-40 screw in the pinion was for balance. I also like how the pinion is offset to reduce drag
