Ok been a long time, I’m on the FB some but figured I’d post a build thread here as I’ll have questions. I didn’t get into Losi until the XX car.
Backstory: At the races and I pit next to my buddy that also owns a LHS. One of his regulars, an older gentleman brought some stuff and I hear Jesse say “gotta ask John as he knows about old stuff!” I start walking up and see the Losi wheels and say those are Losi buggies. I get closer and see an MIP transmission. I look at him and said I’ll take it all. So we made a deal (I stole it) as he only wanted a sprint car he could drive onto his Traxxas 6WD rollback. So I picked up a mint Losi 1/18 sprint and traded it. I almost feel guilty.
So looks like a PRO and PRO SE from what I was told and from what I saw on the Losi page.
I like that they're so complete, even has the electronics connected. Like they came right off the track and into a storage box a few decades ago. Congrats, they look like fun projects!

Good idea, I didn't think of that. If I come across those parts I may do it that way.
More photos! lol But, seriously, I enjoy digging through stuff like this, too. And watching you do it, is much less expensive for me. ;) I really like that truck body on the Jrxish vehicle. I'm very curious about that chassis and interested to see...

Ha ha - i've been eyeing up the hydradrive equipped LRM gearbox that you have for sale in the BST section - I presume it is from one of 'those' LXTs that you had brought & wondered if the box would be good to use in a buggy? :?:
Hey fellas, I'm new here. Just wanted to show off my new Pro that I got a few days ago. I had one of these when I was 14 back in '91 and decided to get another one. Besides the retrofit tranny, turnbuckles and rear shocks its all original. I didnt...
