Do you have any rare rc cars?

I have couple relatively rare and interesting cars.

One is 1991 mrc thunder king. They called it world scale, or 1/7 scale. xMaxx of early 90s. Dual motors, dual steering servos, dog slow as expected :).


Another rare rc is Traxxas street sport from late 90s. Unfortunately no original body. Rear wheel drive. Back in the day it was 99$. No gearbox, motor powers rear diff directly.

And last, Hpi r40 from 2004. Mine is super dirty, have to restore it, but when finish, it should look like this one (this not mine but identical)

Cool! I’ll play, none of my stuff is super rare but I do have a few interesting items. I built two Schumacher Fusions, one mildly upgraded and one fully upgraded and also have a stock original in new condition

Same with the rs4-2 I’m building, not rare just rare parts

And since this is in the electric forum I’ll post an obligatory electric car I built, not rare but you don’t see too many fully upgraded xmaxx’s

I got "15" cars with unique scratches like no other. Does that count?🤣

I have 2 nitro sports from 03 and they are kinda rare, 2 nitro stampedes one with a tan chassis, and some parts from defunct companies and hard to find hpi aluminum parts. But @Defiant won that competition.
 
The closest thing I have to a rarity is an Associated RC10 B4 that has a Kiefer Designs painted body. Most people won't remember them, but they did some badass painted bodies back in the day.

I have a Traxxas Nitro Hawk. Had a Pro.15 when I got it but a found an Image .12 for it. I haven’t been able to find a Nitro Hawk body shell for it though. Hopefully one day.

I won a few 4 1/2 min races, back then you had to build a kit.

I think the rarest one I have goes back to the 60s it’s a OG nitro slot dragster. Been refurbished. 😁 one my favorites
