comes with a certificate of authenticity signed by Gil losi Sr.

Anybody bought one of these or know anything about the seller?

But I'll still happily have him paint a shell

[hugger19]

so think its really signed by gil or auto pen?

[scr8p]

for $44.95 you can find out.

[hugger19]

lol i think ill hold off. still waiting to here back from seller. if it is signed by him i think the $45 is worth it. be cool to frame up.

[GoMachV]

I highly doubt they are all actually signed individually, however I guess it's hard to say

[hugger19]

too bad hes not a member could ask him directly

[DHC6]

even if they are not "authentic" if it's a good quality shell, then even at $45 it's not to bad.

Quick, someone lend me $44.95....I'll find out

I highly doubt they are not signed by Gil.
We are a pretty small community, not like he is going to have hundreds of these to sign

So these aren't new but original bodies? Since every time anyone tries to get Losi to help out with repros or whatnot gets told that everything was destroyed. So after all this time "original mold" bodies start appearing.

The spelling error on the certificate weirds me out as well.

JRX-2 body & wing set made from the actual original tooling created in 1988

new bodies pulled from the original buck

I'm sure pops and Gil losi still have and kept some if not most of the original tooling. Horizon/Losi I'm sure doesn't have any of it. At least I wouldn't have given them any of that in the sale of the Team Losi company.

Mmm interesting

It was my understanding that the shells were originally produced by another company for Losi... which was how the Xcellerator & JRXPro shells came to being reproduced & sold on here some while ago - short production runs instigated by a member on here (BrandonG?), apparently pulled from the original moulds by the company that still holds them.....

BTW is that the Pro or Junior2 shell being advertised... deff not JRX2
