The bottom battery door on the Coors is really a pain to open, I remember struggling with it on my Ninja, which also basically uses the same chassis. You definitely got a nice deal on these cars, the Ultima looks great too.
Hi mate. Make sure the thunderbird is ballraced. The fears melt very quickly without them. I am have a mint ninja and shogun. The marui's are such great looking and performing buggys
For 75 dollars a piece you can’t beat that deal . Would be cool to see you get them up and running and do some videos with them running and then video the full restoration process. Anyhow that was a great haul you guys.
Awsome deal!!! My favorite is the traxxas hawk. I've recently bought two of these. The first one I bought was so nice I didn't want to drive and sits on a shelf. The second one I actually paid more for and was not in very good shape but I wanted one I could drive. Great show!!
Traxxas hawk turnbuckles can be found on eBay ...... just bought 3 nitro hawk trucks.... one is a parts truck, one needs some work and one is in really good shape ready to go
All are cool, but I'm just here for the Hi Rider ;) Regarding the Vette's tyres, they tend to hold up pretty well after 30 years, it's the Big Brute type that pretty much melt off their fragile wheels with age.
With some modifications, better driveshafts (plastic driveshafts is garbage, specially with that bronze bushing eating away at the plastic.) Motor too a bit faster modified one, ball bearings change too oil shocks that are a bit shorter & maybe hex wheels & tires all around that gives it a wider stance. (Its a bit top heavy & rolls over easily if im not mistaken.) As for the Traxxas it's up too the individual user really, probably fairly easy for him too make an chassis tray that attaches via a strip of velcro or finding a fitting one too prevent some scratching. 75 aud is easily worth that per car with the shape they were in, id say almost 120 - 150 each is closer too the real price if he had a working battery too throw in there & show them working on the spot really. Oh and also the kit for some reason uses steel bushings in some places, those are worth polishing up a bit. Oh yeah also remembered another thing i read in the past about these (local sort of fleamarket had a Kyosho hi-rider for sale which i didn't get too buy in time.) The steering is rather sloppy on them (did briefly drive that one bringing my own radio & a fitting crystal & a smaller 7.2v nimh pack for a 1:16th scale car.) if he sorts that out, ball bearings wherever he can, bit quicker motor & oil shocks id say it should handle the same as a black foot.
Yeah for the vette ill add bearings and prob leave the pogo sticks just to beat ari with crappy suspension haha. The traxxas im not sure what your sayn a chassis protector on bottom or in batt tray?
You ever thought of going after some vintage Nikkos? I personally think you should try it long and hard to find the ones that will complete hobby grade ones and one of the cars was called - and it was what's a four-wheel drive belt driven buggy.
Mariwas supposed to come out a couple of years ago. I wish you could look it up on the internet I don't know where to go to find out what the hell happened and why their is not any new ones.
You take a look at Luke's vintage RC he showed an RC that many people wouldn't know the Traxxas made you should look for these vintage Traxxas cars you wouldn't believe they're humble beginnings.
again on shelf Queens there are people who have sentimental value on those old classic cars that people are still driving today there is no excuse for you not to drive that.
Think about this you say it's so vintage and it is a price of history people all the time take very old vintage cars 1/1 they race them and they run them so there's no excuse to say it's a piece of history when I've seen actual cars were piece of history still being used today.
Great deal! And thanks for sharing that👍🏼
Nice Haul 😎👌🏻
Awesome find.
Wow, what a deal!👌
Awesome haul, that Marui is really cool.
That Hawk is awesome!!! The hawk 2 got me into rc many years ago, great video!!!
That's the A&L steering upgrade. Can still get A&L parts through Factory Works. Excellent upgrade back in the day.
Brian Arasim awesome. Thanks for sharing that info. Glad to know. I’ll definitely mention that in my next video for the turbo Ultima 2. Thanks again.

What a fantastic deal you got there bud,especially the Kyosho mid.

Factory works a&l steering on the turbo ultima
traxxas sledgehammer is what got me hooked love to find another one
I'd love to fine myself a Hawk 2 Traxxas
My first rc car in 1993 was a Traxxas Hawk 2 RTR. I wish I kept it.
I have no clue what color to paint it. Maybe you can help. What color was yours
The T-Bird is a big SCORE!!!!!!

Dont worry mine is super nice and will be driven. Best of both worlds

Thanks ill look for them
Any Kyosho car with the Gold shocks is worth buying. They are phenomenal even to this day.
Trax... eh.. Good haul :)
Im with ya.... but i bought it haha
All are cool, but I'm just here for the Hi Rider ;)
Regarding the Vette's tyres, they tend to hold up pretty well after 30 years, it's the Big Brute type that pretty much melt off their fragile wheels with age.
I think the tires are ok still havent lookd it over yet
The Hi Rider Vette was the worst RC car i ever owned, what a pile, but it was only $79 dollars on sale from Tower Hobbies at the time, lol..
@@kingchakazulu7762 I'd buy 10 at that price ;)
Yeah they aren't the best design, just as well they look good standing still!
@@DaveyGa Yeah, that was back in the days when they were just trying to get rid of them, they do look good though.

A& L steering with bearings or factory works
You’re welcome 👍🔧😎🔩
If you could find a way to get those things unglued you can find some really nice on road tires for it. And the sucker.
75 bucks each.... Super cheap! I have spent that on wheels for my Turbo Ultima.
Damn!!

I have a radio shack golden arrow he should buy off me and race it against us but he wont 🤷♂️
Mariwas supposed to come out a couple of years ago. I wish you could look it up on the internet I don't know where to go to find out what the hell happened and why their is not any new ones.
I've seen some vintage Tamiya motors going for more than.
I agree no shelf queens.
That's tearing looks like it might have a ball bearings in it.
All he has to do is get a brushless motor and oilfield dampers for it or a dirt tuned motor or a lower turned brushed motor.
You take a look at Luke's vintage RC he showed an RC that many people wouldn't know the Traxxas made you should look for these vintage Traxxas cars you wouldn't believe they're humble beginnings.
i got parts for that hi rider vette
What u have 🤔
Yeah harry (other guy who responded to your comment) is the one who bought the vette. I know he needs a few parts.
@@tallguygaming409 i got gears a arms towers body mounts and motor for car and another body
@@salinasanders2241 havent lookd at car yet but i will need a body if it is new
Try some Tamiya paint remover.
Its like impossible to get and super expensive
Total Bargain!!
Ill sell mine to you for double if you want. Your wife could do the restoration 🤷♂️
Hey don't you have that kyosho monster Corvette why do you have a blue one?
The blue one is mine he has a box art shelf queen one. Mine will hit the track
again on shelf Queens there are people who have sentimental value on those old classic cars that people are still driving today there is no excuse for you not to drive that.
