Starting to understand how you can end up with 3 cars while trying to restore 1.

Typical conversation in my house as I walk toward the computer...

"Don't log into eBay"
"Why?"
"You're gonna look at RC stuff again, aren't you"
"Maybe"
"Don't add any more to the watch list"
"Why?"
"I can't even find my stuff anymore"
"Then let me buy some of it"
"Don't you have enough already?"
"I wouldn't be on eBay if I had enough..."
"Get off the computer"
"C'mon, just a few minutes, I NEEEED to find the ONE part..."
"Couple minutes, DON'T buy anything"

You're not going to keep the great working Hobbico ac/dc charger? That thing charges batteries in 15 minutes!

:lol:

Yeah, I've bought complete cars for one or two bits that I needed.

Well I won an auction and am awaiting the parts arrival (you guys didn't warn me about this waiting part :D ) So hopefully I'll get some positive feedback and can send messages on eBay. So I can get BST access, so I can buy more parts, so I can sell leftover parts, so I can buy more parts, so I can sell leftover parts, so I can buy more parts............ :shock:

Thanks, I actually stumbled upon it about 10 min after I made my first post.

OK, lets see if I have this right; the 6036 box art is the same as the the 6030 (Protech II) #10), but it came with the Viper body? I haven't been able to find a 6036 manual, does it show the same body and paint as the 6035 (Viper) #4) manual?
Guess where this might be going? :D
Ever hear of a manual art repro? :shock: lol

The learning curve begins........ Postman brought my EBay booty today and I'm finding out not all parts are the same parts. lol
Apparently Bulkhead #6323 came in a few versions. I need the 1 with the ball end holes under the wing tubes (4 bumps in battery cup) and got the one with no holes under the wing tubes and 2 bumps in the battery cup/MSC mount.
Any other design changes that aren't indicated with a different part number I should know about? Or model version incompatibilities?
