Just bought another Radiant yesterday!

Post by howsyouraspen »

So as luck may have it, I was able to snag a basically brand new rarely used Radiant. Off of Craigslist of all places. This time it's complete with box (in decent shape), speed controller, radio, bumper... all the good stuff I was looking for, for my other Radiant. Wow, still can't believe I was able to find 2 of these things in under a couple months time. Wish I'd found this one first, it has all the parts on it my other one needs. I don't really need two to sit on a shelf tho, so I might be unloading one. We'll see when it gets delivered.

On to some pics. :D (seller's pics btw)

Congrats! Indeed, you don't find too many Radiants these days, and you have some pretty special luck to have scored two. 8)

^ Agreed. Thanks. Couldn't pass it up. Oddly enough I had a buddy that lives in MN. and was only a couple blocks away from the seller. So I paid my friend, and he went and picked it up for me. Easy breezy. :D

Awesome score! I snagged a similar condition one last summer. It cleaned up very nicely.

Yes Sir. I'm a little surprised it didn't sell. I think it was up for a week or two.

Actually a month or two. I lowballed him after it was up for a while but since it wasn't a pro radiant I wasn't willing to up my offer.

Haha seriously. Dang, I know its not a Pro, which would be awesome... but I figured, hell for a good price it's a great buy.

I'm still pretty syked to get it. Now that I have 2 of these badboys, I'm almost tempted to run one of em a few times. I've never driven a Radaint before.
