rustler
 

how much is my rusty worth its gat rpm blue front and rear a-arms pro line dirt paws on the rear its missing 2 ez start screws the screw that holds the pipe to the chassis the screws that hold the engine to the mount a stripped out and it runs kind of crapy.

75-100 tops

RE: rustler
 

lol he could get a lot more for it than that.. it just needs to be cleaned up.

Clean the thing up real good.. like new.. then put it on ebay.. im sure you'll get at LEAST 200. All the things you mentioned are very minor.. just nicke and dime stuff. If the motor is running bad its no biggie, either bad tune or needs a new piston and sleeve.. that isnt enough to bring a truck's value down to 75. Does it come with the radio?

Remember, looks are everything. If it LOOKS brand new, you'll get a lot more out of it than if you put it up for sale lookin all ugly like it does now.

RE: rustler
 

dude, anyone who pays 200 for a rusty either works for rcca or traxxas

RE: rustler
 

Nah im sure he can get someone to.. especially some n00b on ebay. They're going to look at the price of a new one on tower.. see 300.. look at that one for 100 less.. and consider it a good deal.

Plus there are plenty of Traxxas die-hard fans out there that would pay it im sure.

RE: rustler
 

it comes with the radio and ive got some masher 2000's and ive got a 15 minute quick charger and ive got the battry for the ez start and the ez start.

RE: rustler
 

you sound like a used car salesman, but hey if you can get 200 for that thing, well good for you;)

RE: rustler
 

I would say if you got it to run good it would sell for a lot more than if it needed a cupple little things.

RE: rustler
 

yea just take it to the lhs and have them fix it up for $20-$30 and you can make $50 more on it

RE: rustler
 

I don't know... I would be lucky to get more than 200 for mine, and I've got some eye candy...
The value will probably drop on rustys since the new Jato is coming out.

RE: rustler
 

i cleaned it up really good i found a screw for the pipe and i found an ez start screw and i found some of my stock stuff check out this pics of my car after i cleaned it up

RE: rustler
 

still some dirt on it

RE: rustler
 

with compressed air that would come cleen in about 2 secconds. if you dont have a air compressor then you can buy air in a can. they sell it for cleening computer keyboards and stuff. once all the dirt is shot off then wd 40 will make the plastic shine. but first get all that dirt off.

RE: rustler
 

ok i will clean it do you know if walmart sells caned air

RE: rustler
 

ok i cleaned it up really good what do u think of it now

RE: rustler
 

There ya go, thats how u wanna sell it. You just added 50 bucks to the value of your truck!

RE: rustler

this is my Duratrax Maximum ST with a liquid cooled TRX 2.5R stuffed in it....[>:]

RE: rustler
 

What does that have to do with his rustler

RE: rustler
 

nice but what does it have to do with my my car

RE: rustler
 

You have a TRX 2.5 motor and that just happens to be the motor i just liquid cooled. I thought you might be intered in water cooling your rustler....

RE: rustler
 

lol yeah.. seeing as how he is selling it. Just admit it, your advertising your new (and i'll admit, awesome) product lol.

RE: rustler
 

im a 28 year old mechanic that just happened to have a cool idea, you can get all the parts for cheap yourself... the radiator is the only hard part to machine...

RE: rustler
 

I have a Nitro Rustler and wondered if anyone has an opinion on using aluminum front A-Arms or I seen someone makes a more flexible A-arm. I do have aluminum rear arms but I do tend to hit a tree or something now and then. It's been a very good and fast car, beats many that are 4 wheel drive with a larger engine, so I think Traxxas Rocks! Any thoughts on camber setting as well?
