Default Does anyone know what this is?

I aquired this nitro vehicle in a plane buyout. I would like to put it up for sale on this forum or on e-bay but do not know what it is or what it would be worth. Any help would be appreciated. It has an Airtronics Rival radio and a dissasymbled thunder tiger 15 engine w/ pullstart. Why it was took apart i don't know. All the parts seem to be in good cond. but the head and backplate screws are missing. Thanks, Bill

If you decide to sell it,let me know, I could try to make into a good monster truck with the right parts.

It's 2 wheel drive and I am going to sell it but don't have a clue what it's worth. I guess if I put it on E-bay I'll find out. It's only worth what you can get out of it. Right? The engine also is thunder tiger. if that makes any difference. Would I be better off selling the radio seperate?

I found more parts. The missing screws along with some NIP parts and some loose parts. A brand new piston and sleeve for the engine. I found a decal with the name TWISTER on it. Does that ring a bell with anyone. I posted car on e-bay this morning to anyone interested in it. # 1727370462

It might be a Thunder Tiger Twister. That has a shaft drive back to the rear end along with the double deck blue chassis.

Hehe, I didn't read the last post. Guess it is a Twister.

It's not a Nitro Quake or an Axis. I have an N.Q. Axis is virtually the same with buggy tires. It's hard to say for certain what it is. But I can tell you for certain what it isn't.
