Looks like a regular on-road setup with monster tires. The price is good (not great) but I don't like the parts arrangement the guy talks about in the ad.

I also thought the radio box looks kinda weird sitting up high like that.

How can we buy the wheels? Is he going to eBay them or are you buying directly from him?

Must be smarttech rims and tires the carsons tread pattern is different $60..............Good deal[sm=thumbup.gif]

NOTE TO RESELLERS: I HAVE ALREADY MADE ARRANGEMENTS WITH IMPORTER, FOR A MAXIMUM OF 3 ITEMS TO BE SHIPPED AT ONE TIME, IN CASE ANYONE GETS THE IDEA TO RESELL THESE PARTS AND TO MAKE A PROFIT. THIS DEAL IS FOR BUYERS (HOBBYISTS) THAT NEED REPLACEMENT PARTS TO FIX THEIR CAR. THIS IS NOT FOR ANYONE WHO WANTS TO MAKE A QUICK BUCK
Looks like Only the seller gets to make a Quick Buck

I just noticed that the muffler outlet is going through a hole in the chassis plate. Not a very good setup for off road use. It would be clogged in a hurry.

I saw one of these at our hobby show. Made in China and pretty cheap. Looks good only. Thin plastic and steel. The tires however are worth a shot.

I found the FG tires are expensive but you get what you pay for. My old Leopard tires of 3 years are now turned into studded winter tires. They can cost a lot but if you sue them for their purpose then they will last a long time.
