How much of it did you get? All of the competition package? Roller only? Did it come with the long front arms? Too many questions? Just curious.

Hope you're doin' something fun.

I do know that the front wheels are 2.1, rears are 2.2, tires not original,front tower is a Fiber-lyte, front shocks are the longer of the two offered oem. The hard to find items that I know of are: 2.2 front wheels,wing buttons and possibly the entire wing set up, oem body, and whatever else you can fill me in on

Looks like 2631 arms with some 2536 trailing style steering blocks. The long front shocks and the dogbones are TCP for sure. The 2621 arms are the "long" front arms. I've never seen them. And the dished fronts are rare. There's been a pair on e-bay for years @ $32 or some such amount. Ridiculous.

Pretty clean roller there.

Look under vintage traxxas runners thread.
The front tie bar and hinge pins are def mine on that buggy and the shocks also but thats all I recognize. I used all as hex screws and aluminum hubs and caster blocks. Also the rear shock tower was a fibre lyte piece. Dunno why the buggy was stripped ...

as far as that goes those front end pieces could be mine too...but then again mine are sitting in the other room still. Didn't take much to get longer hinge pins and those front tie bars I used to sell a bunch of when I was actively ebaying.

But then again, when you sell something to someone that has a different idea of what they want pieces can go in any direction.

TCP is the only racing era Traxxas that I didn't buy new and race back in the day. The body is soaking in DOT4, all the screws have been replaced with OEM correct, I put the rear tower back on, all the rod ends have been replaced with white. That wing/ tower set up is staying til I find original parts.
