my junk car arrives complete with box art parts + more
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=110193793999&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=001
here are some pics after a little cleaning. anyone know who made the rear shock tower (JG?) and what was it for (rc10?) it is not homemade, def cut out by a machine, very thick and matches the thickness of the front shock tower, which is also not stock. i will post a pic as soon as i get it off the car... gross dirty yuck!
the spring cups are self explanatory, they do exist! keep you eyes open people! also the chassis is not stamped.
speaking of early edition cars, i know we have a post of this one, but i dont think anyone pointed out its an early edinger edition (?) with the extra wording under the middle picture of the rear end (check your boxes for me please, none of my costa mesa address boxes say anything under that picture) i dont know if i am correct here, and the instructions look like the later one piece manuals... well we will see when it gets here assuming MR. 0 feedback is legit (he seems nice enough ) AT LEAST paypal protection makes buying from people with 0 feedback a little nerve racking.

Re: my junk car arrives complete with box art parts + more
Hmmm, the noseplate looks like a very late CE version...cut back like a World's Car. The rear spring cups and *one* battery strap look like the real dealio... What's up with the box end? (picture?). MIP shock towers for sure. Also looks like the servo saver arm was cut down, as if it was from a 12e... Let's see the under motor area with no stamp too, please.
Re: my junk car arrives complete with box art parts + more
box end... i am confused sorry man!
thanks for pointing out the noseplate!!! it looks like a ce but its not (not the same angles) looks like maybe it was cut... but its not because its anodized where the cuts would be.... i am gonna take it off now and watch the simpsons!
you are correct about the steering arm (the prototype green car of associated used only the single bell crank and a rc12 link in the center of the nosplate).
the underside is well scratched but the topside i cleaned with my finger and there is no stamp!
more pics to come

Too bad the back (and rest, I guess) of that chassis was hacked...
I'll compare boxes in the next day or so.

Re: my junk car arrives complete with box art parts + more
thanks scr8p!
well either way the car/box is a new addition to me.
btw... the noseplate is nothing special it was cut... well done but cut, dirt made it look still anodized
not worth posting a picture
thanks for your help guys!
