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.

Wow. Nice score!

No pics posted in auction. You are brave my friend, good deal.

well when it said MIP tranny... worst case scenario is i got a MIP change box tranny... best case scenario i got a MIP 4wd Kit... i ended up in the middle with a SP1 tranny... win some, lose some.. $60 aint bad.. hell i got a perfect set of losi aluminum bellcranks too...

Not bad...sometimes it pays to gamble.

Nothin risked, nothin gained. Sounds like a good deal.

exactly.. ive blown 60 bucks on 2 packs of cigarettes, a large vitamin water, mcdonalds, and other random crap just today lol

vitamin water... lol.

ya sound like me...

well....................... at least your drinkin' healthy.

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

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 .

vitamin water? water with added vitimins to make ya buy it..is that the stuff we have it over in aus too with all these stupid names i still buy it though nice pick up mike very lucky

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).
