7 solid rivet chassis and 3 Tuffy's
All bodies and chassis needs some cleaning of course, and also some stickers removal: the cool part of the hobby to relieve and rejuvenate some old toys.
No wheel wells cut, no abuse, only the red GT 40 as a slightly cut post and appearing discoloration through body (rear)
The guy was only selling one car and mismatched some car's auction description (apparently a newbee on the Bay).
So, after mail exchanges to find arrangement, it appears he has more cars from his childhood, and I offered 'em a good and safe home for a very good price....
Not a bad deal I think, no?
41-willys 12-03-2006, 08:12 AM looks like a good score there, zanza!:thumbsup:
roadrner 12-03-2006, 09:54 AM Deal? I'd say it's more of a great deal there. Especially if those bods aren't cut up or broke in anyway. They should clean up nicely. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: rr
joez870 12-03-2006, 10:19 AM Good for you, Zanza! It is about time you get a break on "bay". :thumbsup:
zanza 12-03-2006, 10:26 AM Exactly Joey, as you said it was about time, cool!
Roadrner, no nothing broke or even bent at all, only cleaning with magic cleaner and elbow grease
