I believe it was the 360ST that wasn't rebuildable. The timing adjustments seem to indicate the PT is rebuildable. You'd also spot the metal tabs from the motor can pressed in to hold the plastic endbell in place if it was the 360ST.
I had a "modded" 360ST that was rebuilt; basically the metal tabs were pried open, endbell removed, and motor could be cleaned...but no timing adjustments. It also eventually resulted in a motor that wouldn't mote anymore.

Very nice. BUT 8 of the same.!!!!!!
What's more weird is the 360 motors ( 550 cans) weren't even legal for racing.
He must have really liked them hey.
Wow still a great score. I just got a nice 360 Gold.

The 360 Gold is a great offroad motor...lots of torque! As far as looks go, I also like the 480 Gold (more gold on it than black) and love the 480S & 240S even more, with their red & blue anodized can ends & matching-color endbells. IMHO those are some of the best-looking motors ever made, they're motor art!

Hi Proffesso!
great buy, I also wondered why someone (seller) had so much identical motors even unused!!
I only can imagine a good genuine reason, a "rent-a-rc-car" bussiness!!!
