Vintage or more modern?

I have a nice runner mint 1987 tamiya super sabre I am going to let go? Also an HPI super nitro rally Pikes peak Suzuki Escudo with a racing 12 nitro motor in it. Both ready to go with a bit of tinkering.

put a post on the wanted section on www.oople.com

super sabre would be good, thats almost a boomerang isnt it, but with red shocks? Already got a boomerang and a hotshot, so would be interested, thanks

It's been run, but only once or twice.
Yes, its the bomerang/ hotshot style from 1987. Near mint tyres and wheels. Battery radio fitted but not sure how well they work. It was stuck away in 1988!

PM me an email address if you're interested, or post one on here if you dont mind stalkers!! (at least post if you have PM'd me as I have found PMs a bit unreliable on PH!)

Also got an original Brat in it's box, built, run once or twice, never finished stickering it up. But a proper original one, unpaintd (but partly stickered) shell. Proper time warp when you open the box up! ! !

Original Wild Willy Project too, all there but needs a steering servo saver and uprights to run, (can be glued for shelf dislay).

I need a clear out!

The brat will be worth a stload. I just sold my hilux on eBay for £360.

I've got a Losi XXX 2wd buggy that I used to race at club level. It was a very high spec in its day. complete with everything inc charger, lots of tyres and a toolbox of spares. Although the batteries are probably useless now after about 5 years of neglect!

[busby]

I've got a HPI Baja 5B quarter scale petrol buggy that needs to go - need the cash for another project.


It's box standard (apart from an upgraded metal steering servo) and never been crashed.

It needs some new rear tyres but thats it - ready to go !

Open to sensible offers.........

[thehos]

ok guys, just wanted to spend a few quid, and only battery powered, thanks.


PM sent s3fella, well i would if i knew how, cant see a pm icon anywhere!

Maybe £100-ish. Value really dropped since the re-re came out.

[TheMighty]

Re-re is in short supply though now and it looks like the Brat is on its way back up, but it will never bring the same sort of money as a vintage Hilux.

Might be interested in a Brat at the right price though. Was looking for a re-re before Christmas and couldn't get my mits on one and settle for a VLB for a bit of fun instead. Now totally rebitten by the bug I must get myself a Brat for old-times sake and then find a good Juggernaut 2 for the shelf!

True. I have two hilux' well 2.5 I suppose. One is a project and has spare gearbox, two shells two set tyres. Need to get it built up really!

The new hilux and f150 are just nowhere near the same!
