Up for sale is a GS Storm 1/8 scale 4WD Nitro buggy. It began life as an RTR and is NEARLY a Pro edition. The buggy has been completely stripped down to the chassis and rebuilt replacing parts, fluids, and seals as needed. Here are some features of the buggy:

All metal on metal assemblies where installed using Blue Loc-tite. In addition to all of the above, the buggy will come with a bunch of spare parts, some new in pack:




Almost ALL of the original parts that were removed from the buggy while upgrading to Pro and Dynamite parts
NIP Brake Plates
NIP Adjustable Turnbuckles
NIP Rear Suspension Arm Pins
NIP Rear Lower Suspension Arm
NIP Special Shock Shaft, Long

I even have the original manual for the car! All of this is well over $400-$500 worth of stuff! The parts alone could make up have the costs, not counting all the new parts installed on the buggy to bring it back to race ready status.



I’m looking for $300, plus shipping for all of the above! All you need to make this RTR is your radio gear (Transmitter, Receiver, crystals, and receiver battery), a new servo horn for the steering servo, fuel, a 1/8 starter box, and a glow ignitor.



I will ship via USPS, FedEx, or UPS – your choice. I accept PayPal, Money Orders, and Cashier Checks. If you have any questions or want more pictures, please e-mail me at pdaigle@yahoo.com (pdaigle@yahoo.com).



I am not interested in splitting this up nor am I interested in any trades at this time. Thank you for looking!!

TTT!

OK. Willing to separate:

For the rolling GS Storm buggy with no servos, engine or pipe (but will include the spare parts listed) I will take $188, plus shipping.

For the OS VZ-B engine and OS pipe, I will take $85, plus shipping.

For the HiTec 925MG Servo, I will take $55, plus shipping.

For the Futaba S9402 Servo, I will take $45, plus shipping. Some thing I need to mention about the Futaba S9402 Servo - the plug was damaged so I had to solder a new plug onto the servo's wire. Works fine, just has solder on plug.

I also have an OFNA 1/8 Starter Box. Its older and, if wanted, I can include a gel cell battery with it. Would want $65 for both gel cell and starter box, plus shipping or $35 for the starter box, plus shipping and $25, plus shipping, for the gel cell.

Send me an e-mail or PM if interested in any of the above!

Thanks for looking!!

Here are some details on the Starter Box:

It is an older model OFNA Racing Starter box, that is VERY similar to the chrome top universal starter: http://www.ofna.com/images/st-sb-10250.jpg . Except, it had a blue top that was carpeted by the previous owner to keep from scratching up his 1/8 on-road chassis. It does have the single, high torque motor. And, in addition, a 3, sub-C cell SMC 3000mAh battery pack has been hot glued to the side of the box and is connected to a chrome glow plug ignitor. All works perfectly and as I stated, I can throw in a gel cell with it.

NEW PRICE!
Starter Box - $30, plus shipping!
Gel Cell - $15.00, plus shipping!
Starter Box and Gel Cell together - $40, plus shipping
