I also just bought a 1/4 scale sprint car and was wondering if you guys could help me out on where to bet parts and dirt tires for it.... I'll try to get some pics up SOON
It was good talking with you, I hope I was able to help you out, these older cars are better off on a shelf restored than out running in a back yard.
Value is a tough thing to say, as I have said many times, on Ebay you never know, some cars go for good money and some don't,
Skellenger cars have been barley getting 1000.00 now. My friend Joe had a almost perfect Quickdraw sprint on there with a Skellenger and it only made it to 1025.00.
The last 2 belt sprint I bought was for 500.00 and it was loaded with all skellenger gear minus a rear end, I have just bought the sprint from jdcool4 and it too is in the same type of condition. Ebay has done a lot of good for the hobby and a lot of bad all at the same time, since the cars started bringing big money, there has been a lot more for sale, but, it has also driven the prices that people want for there stuff sky high.
I guess in the end it is worth what ever people are willing to pay for them, me I still say 300.00 to 600.00 for a older car that cant be raced or even driven really with out worring about breaking it is a fair market price, unless of corse it has a Skellenger quick change in it.
I hope I didnt make any one made with this post, it was not my intention, just wanted to try to help out,
Good luck with your car.
