Just an oldie

So, found this while looking for something else. It was my dad's and it was in a box in my garage.
LaTrax? Was this the beginning of Traxxas?



Check out the radio, never saw one like this before!
Is that an antenna or are you just happy to see me?


How old is this thing?

Wow, that is old. I would clean it up and turn her into a shelf queen.

Late 70's early 80's is my guess.
That thing is GREAT!!!
What are your plans for it?
I bet it would be a kick to get it running again!!!
That nicad looks promising!

I seriously do love it! I'd take it apart and resto the whole thing! I'd have to take it to a track or lot to run sometimes too!!!

I'd put that body away for shelf time only tho!!!

AWESOME FIND!!!

Damn. What a show piece! Definitely from the late 70's. And in excellent shape to boot!

Very cool!

 

[RudyF6]

I likely will be building some shelves...
