First, I just want to say that I LOVE this site!!

Second, I want to say DANG you people for getting me back into vintage RC so hardcore again!

Third, I just picked up this huge RC car lot from a guy on Craigslist. The pictures were crap and the ONLY car I knew was in the pile was the gold pan RC10 and for the price, that is all I cared about.
When I got there, I was VERY surprised! They all need alot of work but the RC10 has a stock stealth tranny, theres a gas Traxxas of some sort, an Associated truck, a Kyosho Triumph!!!, and some mini losi xxx-t's, a bunch of parts, and several radios!

Obviously the gold pan is an RC10, but I need your guys help on what exactly the Associated truck is? What exactly the Traxxas is and what let me know if I'm right on the Triumph.

Also, both the Futaba radios are missing the battery holders and battery doors. Anyone have them or know where I can get them?

I'll be keeping some of this stuff and selling other stuff, I'll keep you posted.

Thanks guys.

Whoa! Nice score dude.

T3 I believe. Traxxas Nitro Hawk and Triumph for sure.

Looks like the guy liked to take em apart to mix and match. Too bad he couldnt put them back together.

Have fun!

That kinda blows because the covers/cartridges will probably be just as much as an entire radio on your only source... ebay. Frankly, I wouldn't care if the covers were gone. They still look cool sitting there. The Magnum Sport is fairly rare and I love the blank spaces where the other dials are on the more popular Magnum Jr. Imagine these days how cheap that extra technology would be filling those spaces. :lol:

You nice score. You got my all time favorite tx for racing. The airtronics xl 2p. It was kinda bulky but just above where your left thumb goes there was a button that worked like a brake when you pushed it. I don't know if that was what it was ment for but it worked great for me I almost never let off of the trigger.

Wow Momo5, That Nitro Hawk that you've got looks cool! And now I know that the shocks that are on my Triumph belong on the Hawk.
