Just got the first r/c car I ever owned. An aristcraft/hitec kangaroo. Its a little rough but came with a ton of spares.http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=261251668549

Sweet! Always loved the koala/kangaroo and most of all the Dolphin!

Thanks! I only learned of the dolphin 4x4 in the past year or so, and never knew about the wildebeast truck till I saw the ad. Now I own onebof then also.

Damn, $12 bucks after 11 bids?? That's a steal for 2 vintage cars! I remember selling the Kangaroo at the hobby store I worked at in the mid-80's. It wasn't much of a car, honestly, but it sure makes an intriguing resto project nowadays!

Ya really weren't made well but was the best easter present when I was 8 yrs. old . Brought back a ton of memories when I opened the box!

What a bargain.

Always good to get your first ever r/c car.

I hope he decides to keep it, there was talk of getting rid of it already
