Default A Vintage find - Old Traxxas E-Maxx

15 years ago got out of the RC Hooby.
Sold almost all my RC stuff with the exception of the remote and some Lipo batteries.
Today stopped at a garage sale and saw an old Traxxas E-Maxx, my heart skipped a beat, give the guy $20 bucks and walked away with a smile on my face.
Dont know if it works, nothing seems broken, didnt care.
Let me go try to find my old remote and lipo batteries, probably dead and test this sucked...let's just imagine it works,
Its been sitting for  a while

Glad I opened the transmission, it's dry, no lubricant to be seen anywhere, yikes....
Let's clean and lube her.

Check the bearings too. Any that are gritty or rough, replace. Get bearings from AvidRC.com. Cheap enough to replace when needed.
