i would say about $325. Remember something, the cheaper you go the faster it will sell because a new one is only about $475.
NIce truck, hope it sells

RE: Whats she worth? (Upped Revo)
Can you tell me where you live so I can dig in your garbage can?
Honestly? I have had AMAZING response with parting Nitro trucks into a few pieces on Ebay. I can't tell you why, but I got $450 parting a Savage 21 roller like 4 months ago. I was like ***?!!
Here is what you do; Ebay time!
Revo Roller less motor, with the all of the bodies but the Venom Body; As many stock parts as you can get back on it, keep the RPM and stock parts with it- I bet you will get $225-275.
Then do a racing 'trick' package - tuned pipe, spare CB, springs, spare rockers, racing wheels/tires, Venom body. I bet you will get $75-$100 for that.
Then the MX3S + Hitec 5645. I bet you get $150 for that setup
Then the OS .18TZ for another (AT LEAST) $125.
That would fetch you $575-$650 for your setup. I bet my numbers would be really close. These things just aren't worth as much in a package as seperate. $575-$650 is a LOT of money to most people. Break it into chunks tho, and they can pay more for what they want.
I've already said too much... Disclosing secrets here.

RE: Whats she worth? (Upped Revo)
yah Dale, I know all about the eBay game.. I made ALL of the money for my LST2 in under a week on eBay. Started with $80, turned it into well over $700. Just happened I found the hot toy of the Xmas season And I used to part Revo's and sell em as a rolling chassis setup for racers that worked out well too, but I lost intrest.
