didn't anybody see this on ebay?
I saw this auction on ebay about two weeks ago followed it to the end and was very surprised that no one bid on it the guy had a starting price of 200.00 plus 40.00 for shipping so when I saw that no one bid I emailed the guy and asked him to send me some pics and asked if he would take 200.00 shipped he did well I just received the items today and was very happy when I saw how nice they really were both the turbo and the original ultima have almost no run time on them at all chassis are super clean tires like new the turbo ultima alone was worth the 200.00 in the condition it was in. If the seller only some decent close ups of these buggies.the total package consists of turbo and original ultima, grass hopper, remotes for all, kyosho totes for all nip kyosho parts

Nice find. I think you got good deal. The original Ultima was the world champ in '87 if I remember correctly.

ultima's are hot cars, parts are somewhat uncommon for them on ebay, but kyoshoamerica sells some hard to find parts still, as well as towerhobbies selling clone parts for their ST-15 stadium truck, search for st15 at tower.
the hardest to find stuff typically is the Rear bulkhead, 48p gears, ball diff, and universals for them, dogbones are easily available still though. everything else is available in one form or another.
i restored one a while back here

I saw it. I already have all the Ultimas I need...for now.
I think I have 2 or 3 rear bulkheads if anyone needs any. There are two versions in case anyone is wondering.

Re: didn't anybody see this on ebay?
One thing to note...there are 2 versions of the ultima rear bulkhead, but there are also 2 versions of the rear pivot block.
If you're using the stock rear arms, then it doesn't matter which bulkhead & pivot block you have. But if you're using the rear arms from the ultima pro, then you need the ones with the extra set of holes.
