This will eventually be built, with all the goodies on it. I am still searching for a P-100f CPR unit and a 1700 racer pack.

As far as scale realism goes, they can't be beat. If you are looking for the best 2.2" crawler, go with a Losi. The Tamiya transmission is bulletproof and smooth, but a torquey motor will twist the driveshaft if the wheels get locked for some reason (Mark).. I am running the Novak Rooster crawler and the Fifty Five motor. Damn slow, but extremely powerful.

If you get one in kit form, be prepared to spend upwards of 12 hours assembling. Takes a long time! All in all, it screams Tamiya quality, but it is a little too top heavy for any serious crawling.

This is listed on ebay as we speak.

If a member of RC10 talk is the winner of this auction, I will include a new set of the Tamiya Kingcab wheels to fit on this dude for FREE.

Wow, very nice collection! That wild one looks awesome! It seems like the vintage scene could be the largest growing sector of RC! The amount of interest in vintage cars, and vintage racing is amazing! I guess it's guys like us, who for what ever reason had to take time away from the hobby, have come back with a vengeance! for new and vintage cars. I find myself looking for vintage RC items more then new items.
