FS: Mardave Cobra, Super Hornet & Wild Dagger 11 years 10 months ago #9977

I want to free up a bit of shelf space & electronics, so I'm looking to sell three of my least used, most non-baxart, most lashed-up cars, cheap. Be warned, these are not up to my usual standard :D


edits:
Super Hornet/Rough Rider is sold
Cobra & Wild Dagger are going on ebay shortly


Mardave Cobra: Steering servo but no other electrics, Kamtec ABS Baja body in very poor condition, body mounts are shocking. Shocks absorbers (nice segue, eh?) have no oil - it's all leaked out.
Stock wheels all round but front tyres are Tamiya "Super Gripper"s with the two big grooves & the numbers 55-77-23-14 ... which i think makes them vintage Wild One / Fox? They are in good order apart from some superglue damage on one sidewall of each - _not_ done by me, they are not superglued on. Probably the best bits of the car, along with the rear tyres, which are HPI "Sand Thrower"s, these have been used but have no immediately obvious wear. They _are_ superglued on, but I think they would probably come off pretty easily.
I'll leave the steering servo in, but no other electrics. I'll also include a 48dp pinion with the lowest number of teeth I can find (the tyres have a much larger rolling radius than usual). I think I also have the original spike tyres, so they will go in the parcel too.
No manual, no box, no radio, just what's described here.









Super Hornet - Kamtec Rough Rider shell, has some damage on the roof where the spotlights go on .. not sure what happened to them, but I will include a used but paint stripped pair, + some stickers. Steering servo & motor (a Johnson 4-hole, which sounds a bit worn) included, but no other electrics.
Chassis has a split on the back, but a new one is included. I tried (& pretty much failed) to make something like a 3rd shock on the front of the gearbox.
No idea what the wheels are off, but rear tyres are the same as the original Pajero MTW, fronts are labelled IMEX ROAD DAWG & look to have been cut down to fit the wheels.
No manual, no box, no radio, just what's described here.

30 GBP posted in UK. Again, willing to post overseas at buyers' cost.





Wild Dagger: Midnight Pumpkin body, "pratice" bumper & winch from a Wild Willy 2. Driver, fake spare wheel, jerry can & NOS bottle are all from a Chinese fake Wild Willy M38.
Former owner has fitted pink anodised shocks, these are in very good order apart from some dirt & the bottom joints being scuffed on the outside, former owner also made the lower mounting brackets... they're crude but do work, so I've never replaced them. Battery holders have been modified to take a 8.4V pack, but will still take a 7.2.
I've fitted a wheelie bar on the back - it does need it at times.
Two 540 motors & steering servo included, no other electrics.
No manual, no box, no radio, just what's described here.











pictures to follow later :)

if the pink shocks are these, that would be genuine tamiya 53155 so would make the pumpkin a nice buy.

Ok, I found a 58 x 41 x 28cm box that they'll both fit in, weight will be approx. 6 kg ...
Shipping by DHL on a 3-day "road" service, fully tracked & insured is 86.81 GBP = 107 EUR :blink:

I asked 70 GBP for the cars, obviously that included some subsidy for shipping within the UK, so with that deducted, 55 GBP = 68 EUR ...

So, in total, 175 EUR.




If that seems like a good deal, I have some old rope you may be interested in ;)
