New to the board.

Post by uofmhockey »

I bought my JRx2 when they first came out. The box didn't even have any pictures on it, just JRx2 on the lid. I traded the box to a big time Losi guy at the local track. I have mostly Associated stuff and felt the box should be in a Losi collection. He says that box is a prized part of his collection. When the performance kit came out I bought it and added to my original JRx2. I recently bought another JRx2 that I'm restoring to sit in my collection next to my original car.

I had to figure out how to make the picture file size smaller. Here is my original JRx2. I will post pics of the one I'm restoring later.

Nice Pro, looks great, I am a big fan of that style Tecnacraft turnbuckles. I see HPI rear wheels and Robinson spur gear set up.

I will try to get a picture of the box. The guy I traded it to paints my bodies and I need to get a couple painted.

I searched the web and found a picture of the original JRx2 box. This is what it looked like.

I remember driving to Ranch (the mission blvd address on the box) and buying mine they day they released them to the public, same box. Wish I would have kept that original car :oops: :oops:

I bet no one has a mint sealed JRx2 in that box.
