Ok... As far as the other guy goes... If you can get good compression not the motor and LOW ball him on price, I might still bite but be prepared for a lot of repairs... The radio issues scare me. If there is no compression or the kit looks beat on, just skip it.
I have heard good things about...
Lol! That's a good point... Cash Def talks!
Yeah, the 1/8 scale stuff gets expensive quick! That's why I was thinking, so long as it's in good shape, you're not buying a headache, then go for it!
Pull the glow plug too... Make sure it looks to be in good shape, it isn't all white etc... Look...
Be sure to check the motor for good compression!ale sure the chassis is straight and not all beat up. The price seems good imo, but that is based on What you have said, I don't run 1/8 scale.
Buying used is always a risk, but buying something that you can actually test out and run for yourself...
Is this something you have seen in person or is it online? Have you inspected it WELL? Seen it run? Seen it run thru a full tank of fuel or 2? More info would Def help to answer your question
