Hello, I have 80% of the parts for the cox scorpion and sidewinder cars. They are made kyosho and share many of the parts with the kyosho scorpion and turbo scorpion and tomahawk. I have new in the package original parts bags, several of each. But, there are a few things I don't have like left front suspension sets, This would be everything that bolts to the main cross shaft on the left front. I have several bags of right front kits but no left....boo... I also need dogbones and wouldn't mind a few chassis rails and the black plastic two pieces of the gearing cover. New parts would be great but I would love even nice shape used. I have alot of the rest of the parts including bodies, rim & tire sets, decals, hardware sets, gear diffs, all original in original packaging. Please Trades only, I need to find the things I need and want to help those working on similar projects.

I have some parts here that I'm not completely sure what they are for. Anyone got a guess? I wonder if the white round objects with the stem on them is suppose to maybe be like headlights? I have this all aluminium shock tower too but have no idea what it would go on.

Good deal man, I'm happy you like the body!

Speaking of RC body art, I'm looking to get a new body for the Bosscat I have in the near future - want to go with tiger stripes on it. I was originally thinking orange body with black stripes and black windows, but my springs won't match - I have white, grey, red, and yellow to choose from. So I might go dark red (if I can find a good paint) with black stripes instead. Hmm.....

Yer darn right I am! You were watching, eh? I had up to 48 folks "watching" that listing. Wow. A guy in France won it, actually.

I still feel a little bad as the body isn't in outstanding shape (but definitely servicable), but I said that in my listing, so there ya go. The rest of the buggy is in great shape. That sale really helps cover the cost of the Bosscat I got.

almost i still need a rc10ds then i will have every version of the old 10s

this one is pretty nice got it for 40$ the esc is not working but it has alloy steering setup and just about every other hop up part u could get even a diffrent blue motor mount with a heat sink only thing that sucks is it has the orignal 6 gear tranny(not that thats a bad thing but i needed a stealth for another project)
