Well, the big graphite showed up...I really thought I was getting front and rear chrome wheels, but its only front. The chassis is decent, a small part of the front corner is rounded, but not splintered. Good news its got some cool parts box stuff, another 6 gear, some turnbuckles, those cool purple parts...a AE true stock motor and more of those annoying old school radio gear...Im building quite the box of those.

Yeah, that's pretty hideous. Are those pop-rivets on the body? Let's see, oh, Kyosho front tires...they look to be in good shape.

parma body, love that thing lol, i was gonna re-mold some lol

Yeah the kyoshos and the front wheels are brand new, never ran. The description said this won many championships or something like that and that it has sit in the closet for 15 years. I expected it to be a little more ready to run, it appears that over those last 15 years the closet gnomes have raided it for parts.

Dye the purple parts black, clean it the best you can, remove paint from the gold motor plate, replace the most used parts and then just add a new painted body and that thing will live again!

And now Mr. Ed KNOWS how to mod his brand new CC chassis

haha, that body is .....interesting? lol
