Re: Childhood, must build or buy one.
For the $300-$350 I'm going to spend on it..I will not be jumping it. That General Lee I bought is rare and it's new as opposed to it being used. I got it for $60. There's used ones on Ebay for up to $70, all scuffed up. There's one other new one on Amazon for $90...and this is just for the 1/18th scale. The 1/10th scales are even higher.

$350 new....and people know what you're gonna do with it so they ask a high price. You're basically buying just the body, so you can turn it into a hobby-grade RC car.
That's guys build is probably in the $1,000's of dollars, to make his own wheels.Last edited by Guyver; 09-07-14 at 01:43 AM. Reason: clarity

You can't change the wheels on that car, so back it went.
Replaced with this:

Final chassis I've settled on, can't return it so, I'll make it work.
I'm going to return that rally car to Amazon.
I have pretty much everything

I just need a battery and a battery charger. I'm probably gonna have to paint that General Lee body. One reason is because I want the correct color (1975 Corvette Flame Red Code 70) and also because the body will have holes in from those buttons.

Re: Childhood, must build or buy one.
So, when I made the above post, I already had these wheels and tires:
New Duratrax 10 Spoke White Wheels Vendetta TC 2 DTXC9919 | eBay
New Duratrax Treaded Tire w Foam Insert Vendetta TC 2 DTXC9676 | eBay
Though, I was hoping I could find a better alternative....I'll just have to mod those Duratrax wheels to look like Vectors:
