WTS/WTT Traxxas Tmaxx with lots of extras

[Rlee]

2/10/2009: I bought a brand new 2.5 racing motor today that is new from top to bottom with a new carb,pull start, and all. Purs like a lion , it's on it's second break in tank of fuel and will come with a brand new 20% gallon of fuel.

Well I recently purchased these off a member here and realized that they aren't for me. I started to get in them and might even get back into them but for now I have to many things going on in my life for another hobby so here is a piece of his ad along with some stuff that I bought for them.

The first one is ready to run, and has the 2.5 engine installed, and has several aftermarket mods installed.

-8 purple anodized aluminum shocks
-8 silver aluminum upper/lower control arms(not installed)
-Full 3 piece purple anodized skid plate set
-NEW Integy fuel tank guard
-NEW traxxas battery box with Orion Recieve pack 1600mah/6.0v
-Traxxas TQ3 receiver(controller)
-NEW prophet select 12v DC charger, 4-8 cell
-NEW Patriot RC glow charger
-New Hex Head Screws to replace every screw on the car

The other chassis is just a rolling chassis, includes full gearbox/diffs, 1 servo, engine mount, body/suspension mounts. The only thing it needs to be truly a "rolling chassis," is one tire. I have the tire foam for it though.

Extra parts for it include:

-Tmaxx 3.3 battery and receiver boxes
-Extra glow plug in package
-6 stock shocks
-7 red springs
-2 silver 2.5 heads
-traxxas 2.5 engine with carb(carb and engine need rebuilt)
-traxxas 3.3 with carb and head(engine needs rebuilt, head has 2 broken fins
-Traxxas EZ start controller and module(controller needs 6 cell battery, and module needs a one way bearing)
- 2 RPM black skidplates
-4 extra(stock)upper/lower control arms
-2 extra chassis braces(stock)
-ziploc bag full of extra gears.



I have done some reading on them and have cleaned the parts up and was going to get them coated to look better and be even more durable. The first thing that most people upgrade are the steering servos as they are weak and don't want to turn the wheels when sitting still. So I purchased some brand new servos that are made of metal gears and are over double the torque. These are some serious fun if you put some time into them and can be modded into anything you can dream up. They have realistic bodies that you can purchase on Ebay or any other Hobby shop and have everything from upgraded tires and wheels to superchargers and turbos.

I believe that the carb needs rebuilt or replaced because it doesn't seem to be getting fuel. Hobbytown USA (Greenwood, IN Hobby shop) said they would check it out for free and get it running (by adjusting the carb and such) the motor isn't the problem because it has good compression so the only thing left is the carb or bad fuel. They are really cheap to have fun with and are the coolest thing since Roman Noodles.

Here are some pics of what will be coming with it.

If you want the box and extra tools (allen wrenches, crescent wrenches, and some other screw drivers) to carry all the items in it can be had for an extra $50 (The box alone is going for $40 on Ebay)

There will also be 1 1/2 qts of nitro fuel(some 10%, some 20%...not mixed), and a 4 piece set of anodized hex drivers (for RC stuff) included if deal is right.
I also added 4 LED's to the headlights that are powered by a 9volt.
