tamiya nitro rc car....

realy good condition but needs some work.....

starts fine just installed a new glow plug and bought a new glow charger.... but the throttle is stuck open so the wheels just spin.... think it needs setting up but i dont have a clue. when i bought it, it flew, i then replaced the carb and air filter and the throttle stuck open, so now the wheels just spin!!!

comes with a massive box of spares and half a bottle of fuel!

cost me £150 second hand about a year ago... now i cant get it to work....

has a batterd up shell so could do with a new one, its rear wheel drive.

£70 ono

If it’s got radio gear and FLD doesn’t want it I’ll take it off your hands for £50 thumbsup

Single wishbones... ooooh rubbish!

Seriously though, anyone that wants it should just buy it.... you can pick up a cheap handset with receiver and servos for less than £40. Posted Image

I must say I do love the little Nitro engines - have two in the garage and just make the electric models just so dull.

Hopefully sold to me! No radio gear with it but like you say cheap to pick up. Owned dozens of RC cars back in the day so looking forward to tinkering with this. More fun working on the kit than actually driving, once a nerd as they say :D

Bugger, not literally poof

If the OP wants to entertain a bidding war I'll be up for that but I guess the honourable thing to do would be to sell to you as you replied first.

Seeing as there is a bit of interest in this i might aswell sell mine seeing as i never use it Its called a Fazer - comes with controller and everything you need to get going right away, a decent bottle of fuel, glowplug and charger etc The bodyshell is in pretty bad shape, not due to damage but due to me cutting holes in the windscreen, drilling holes in the bonnet for cooling purposes It runs very well and very easy to replace parts/ tinker with http://www.storacing...-dbr9-p135.html link above has more details Would sell for £110 collected seeing as the main car is in very very good condition, only used the thing 4 or 5 times

Good purchase....

I might just have to go and get myself a new radio set as mine is fubbard....

Question is which car should be brought back to life?

The Peugeot 206GTi, Alfa 156 GT, Peugeot 406, Scooby-doo, Mazda Rx-7 or the Buggy?

You got any tips on what radio gear to get. I like the looks of the gun type Tx's.
