1:10 Scale
240mm Wheelbase/ 170mm width. Tamiya M-Chassis (long)

Price will be $35 including decals and shipping. I will place the order once I get at least 50 paid orders including my own of course. Paypal account transfer is prefered (so I don't get charged for credit cards) or money order. If I know ahead of time I may accept a personal checks.

PM me with questions. PayPal me using account djm914-6@comcast.net. Mailing address is 2 Olean Road, Burlington MA., 01803

I'll start a running list in this thread of orders. Please make sure you include your screen name, real name, Postal Address, and quantity with your order.

Note: I can not afford to loose money on this, so if the USD plumits, I'll either cancel the order or ask for an extra amount. Likewise, if the current rate changes for the better, I'll offer a refund of the difference, put the extra toward a paint job, or donate to the fund of your choosing.

Thanks for playing,

OOOOH!

i know nothing about r/c but having my car in scale would make me a happy boy (like the beat farmers song).

can you give recommendations on the proper r/c platform for this body, cost and a good excuse to tell the wife?

muchas gracias.....

The store I usually go through doesn't carry the Tamiya M series cars anymore. I've seen quite a few on ebay though. Look for the Tamiya BMW M Roadster, Tamiya Boxster or Tamiya Carrera. I'll see if I can find a shop that carries these cars in a combo package. Otherwise, you need the chassis, Radio, Batteries and Charger. Quick guess is under $250 on the road. That get you a car that'll travel 25mph and scare the cats in the neighborhood.

I suppose I should come up with a date. I just figured I'd order when I reached 50 but it looks like it'll take longer than expected. I'll put some thought into it today.
