That is a very old car from the 90's Parts are still out there (Ebay, Hobby store oldstock) and tires are plentiful. It's worth from$100-$175 depending on the condition and what it comes with.

I wouldnt touch it with a 10 foot pole, Parts for that car ARE NOT easy to get i know serpent does NOT carry parts for that car anymore and even tho some things are interchanable with the newer versions your pretty much on the mercy of the left of inventory at the hobby shop's. This is one of those types of deals that if you dont have your OWN spare parts OR a half a roller laying around your house its not really worth it.

What are you going to use the car for??? these 8th scale are super fast and snapping parts on this car is VERY EASY. If you planning on useing it on normal streets in front of ur house or at the park THIS IS NOT THE CAR YOU ARE LOOKING FOR.

If ur looking for a larger car to mess around with on the street get the INFERNO GT, its shaft drive the bodies look great and u can get parts pretty much anywhere for it. That serpent is NOT A BASHING CAR.

Another thing i 4got to mention those serpents have a FRONT ONE WAY installed on the cars so ud need a good radio with ABS feature in it in order to even begin to drive that car. with out a good servo on the throttle and a radio with ABS that car is pretty much worthless
