I was looking at SOLD listings on ebay.

vintage axles go for $100 a piece.

The trans go for about the same

$70 for the front bumper

I didnt see any sold listings for just the chassis or the wheels/tires, but thats probly another $75 or so.

So I could get $30-$150 or so by parting it out (after ebay/shipping/paypal fees)

Thats tempting to do. But its equally tempting to fix it up for myself. I mean, when will I ever find another one for that price?
Assuming it's in decent shape, $75 was a steal. It would be a bit pricey to get it fixed, but it is, imo, one of Tamiya's coolest trucks. It's very realistic with its metal axles and locking hubs.
