I know what you are talking about...

Another argument is that we do not buy already restored cars!

I gave in with the Lazer ZX and Triumph sorry they're already minters....unless bolting the wheels on and clipping wings on counts?

Let's play a little game

Spot why this isn't a proper Turbo Mid!

I'll start....it's got a LWB shell cut down and incorrect wing......who's next?!

Wrong rear wing, wrong turnbuckles, battery mounts have been hacked up to fit lipo, and as it's supposed to be a shelf queen I have wishbones in better condition on my runner Mid.

Still...it looks nice and I wouldn't be surprised if it goes for a lot..from the pics I suspect not a too much has to be done to it. Having said that, it's not until you take it apart you would determine this for sure.

Better than some of the crap that comes on eBay...

Two things.

1. Not a proper shelfie.

2. Good base for a rebuild.

I was thinking if he can get £300 with so long to go on the auction and the car is a bit of a state underneath then what's my mint one worth?! But I think you're right he must be getting his mates to bid it up. Will keep an eye on it anyway.

Well I'm just in a company house here in Oman which is big but our house in Scotland is small so I had half a cupboard there! What'll I do when I go back home?!

I agree. I'm a bit suspicious....£300 is the most I've ever seen for a car which is not worth that...anyway I guess he would have done well if it went for that.

Let's hope he doesn't end up buying his own car!

Sold my original Avante for quite a bit on eBay yesterday going to use the funds to buy a LWB Mid when I eventually find a good donor

Tried vintage Tamiya but I'm Kyosho through and through

Joel,

Is there any difference between the original OT-93 and the repro bumpers from jose (sand super store) from Spain? You compared them a while ago right? Or are they perfect copy's from the original?

ref==> http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.ph...25189&start=15

Is he selling the repro OT-93 bumpers on ebay?
