These are one of my favorite 1/8th scale cars. This same seller had this kit up on eBay about 3 or 4 months ago. This is the McLaren Mk8a which I think might be the best 1/8 scale kit ever sold. This is just amazing and to think it was built and sold in the very early 1970's is astonishing to me. I saved all the pictures from the auction and I believe it sold for around $1200. Enjoy.

I agree these are as good as it gets

[tizeye]

Wow thanks for that..that's one hell of a cool car..now if I can just sell all of my other rc stuff before the auction ends I might just be able to afford it..

[murphy3428]

Anyone on the forum have one?

[Dirtdiver]

Wow, that is one heck of a nice machine. I only wish I had one of them for the shelf.

[tizeye]

Alright I've asked him for better pictures of the car..and since he says in his listing that he's looking for tether cars, and since I have a few I'm going to see if we can do a deal...it's a long shot but worth a crack Nigel...Nig!

[tizeye]

Still poor quality pictures. You'd think that for such a rare car you'd at least take some decent pictures..

[scr8p]

well, maybe he's selling the car to get money for new camera.

I wonder if wood motor mounts were the best choice of the day. This is actually the 2nd or 3rd Dynamic car I've noticed this on.

[mrlexan]

Yeah, I have seen the wood a number of times myself.

Looks like the car has a significant amount of oxidation. That being said, I wouldn't say it's worth $1200. Tizeye, if you happen to get it, please let me know. I would love to have the opp to take some of the misc spares off your hands.

[a01butal]

Looks like the oxidation is on the magnesium chassis and can easily be refreshed with glass bead blasting similar to the parts on the Yok 870c bulkheads so I wouldn't think it should be too bad.
