My "Mystery" Lot came today

Post by mikedealer »

so i bought this auction for $40 + 20 shipping

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=170227448119

figuring... well i cant go wrong with a MIP tranny for $60 bucks, what the hell..

The car came today.. pretty great shape, almost entirely made of hop up parts, and complete in almost every way.. great condition car... and a "thick" fiberglass chassis i have never seen before... almost a composite shell with a light inside material..

Car Came with a Black MIP Original Tranny in perfect shape
Losi Almuminum Bellcranks in perfect shape
Hot Trick Rear "short" shock tower nr. mint shape
4 gold .56 gold shocks (decent shape)
andys front/rear arms, ok shape
blue litesink motor plate (good shape but has wear)
Novak 2 Speed controller in good shape
Novak NERS2 reciever
Molded AE wing in nr perfect shape (needs re-dyeing, someone made a bad attempt at mint green?)
tires and rims are shot

overall not bad, pics later... i am curious as to the chassis make, its about the size of 4 quarters stacked high.. very strange.

You could just say you liked the way it tastes, regardless of the contradiction in terms. :D

Looks like a good deal from my side of the puter. I think you made off pretty good with this one. I just spent $63 at the gas station today so its not a terrible price :mrgreen: .

The orange flavor is good. Tastes like Gatorade without all the calories and sodium. I buy it all the time (but don't smoke and haven't been to Mickey D's in like 10 years).
