Modded Jato & GT2 ** Warning ** 56k HEAVY

Hey guys! Well, its been a while since I've been on this forum. I'm out of town ALL the time for work these days, and simply have 0 time to play with my big boy toys. I tried sellin these two back in October, and was unsuccessful. They haven't been fired up since then, and have been sitting on my hutch in my kitchen this whole time, collecting dust. I'd really like to get rid of these to somebody that'll enjoy them.

I will ship, but as I dont have paypal the buyer would be required to send a Money Order in advance. This is why I'd much rather sell to a semi-local buyer in So Cali. We can meet up, exchange, and call it good.

Again, the GT2 is basically brand new. The engine was broke in, and it ran a few short laps around my buddies backyard track. Its been ran up & down the driveway a few times after that, but its never been driven to its potential. I'm asking $150 + any shipping costs.

The Jato has been heavily modified. Its got the 2.5r engine in it. Single speed conversion. Hard Anodized Ti Ni Traxxas shocks (jato pistons). Top plate has been modified & shoved back an inch for better dirt track stability. The tires & rims are almost brand new. They did see a few laps @ the local track. I know there was more modifications done, but I dont remember what all they are... It does have the standard Traxxas controller, but its missing the antenna. I dont know where it went :/ I'm asking $200 + any shipping costs.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EDIT: I've added pictures. The GT2 only appears in 2 as its the RTR Version, and the only thing different is the MotorSavers Air Filter. It just needed to be pictured to show the great condition its still in.

The Jato has seen some drastic changes as you can see. The top plate is mounted up front by aluminum stand offs and the forward tension bars are Titanium Turnbuckles. Custom mounted steering servo with aluminum mounts and aluminum arm. As you can see, Traxxas red aluminum turnbuckles, except titanium replaced where the red alu's are known for snapping (and did snap in my case). If you see any difference in the Jato Shots (such as the blue aluminum antenna nut) - The Jato shots on top are more recent than the detailed shots of the TP Mod.


If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at [email protected].

Thanks
Mike

Ah, gettin email notifications now. The GT2 is moreless sold. Just gotta catch up with the buyer to make the exchange. The Jato is still up for sale, but I'm not interested in any sales. I'm thinkin about putting my Revo up along w/ the rest of my RC toys & tools because they just dont get any time anymore. I have a bad habit of not checking these forums anymore. My email ([email protected]) is the best place to catch me and get a fairly quick response.

I'm pretty sure i mentioned it up on my original post. Shipping isn't a problem, but my paypal isn't verified so I can't accept money. That means I have to have a MO upfront, ensure it cashes, THEN ship. It seems a little unreasonable if the roles were reversed, but honestly I dont want to get caught up in a bad deal. Thats why I'm pushing for local sales.

Thanks for your interest,
Mike
 
I can't wait to meet up with you and get that gt2 off your hands. Beings my baja fund for the moment is being spend on a laptop and beach crusier, so this will be my sand drag build I have always wanted to do. The santa ana river bead is not to far from my house and its basically a big open bead that just begs for bashing so thats what the gt2 will be used for.
 
Picked up the GT2 today guys. Great looking truck and like new as he said. If your looking for a jato, id look into this one because if its anything that the gt2 is, youll be more then happy with it. Thanks again man. It was good meeting you also.
 
if the revo is posted how much for it shipped?
 
Sorry I haven't checked up on the site for a while. Between work and buyin a house, I've been pretty busy.

I still have the Jato if anybody is interested. Looks like I may have to open a new account so I can get setup to receive money with paypal. Bleh. That or try to fight with them again to release my old account details from oh, 10 or 12 yrs ago so I can use my account with my current paypal.

Anyways - I'll probably be posting up a few helicopters for sale next. I've got a CP Pro that has had a few crash landings - I realize now I dont have enough patience to learn to fly a heli :D Don't worry, crashes have been no more than 3' high. It'd be put in a package w/ an older gas powered heli that I picked up from somebody. Kyosho somethin. The CP Pro has an extra battery, and only needs new main rotor blades & skids. I was gonna buy the super skids that I read about online, but the LHS I liked to go to shut down, and the other ones I don't trust so much (atleast not with heli stuff)

If your interested in pickin up some heli's for a pretty reasonable price, let me know. Emailing me is the BEST way to get to me.

As far as the Revo, I'm still debating on that sale. If I do, it'll be a big package deal. I'll be washing my hands with the hobby, which means the Revo would sell with my toolbox, tools. Possibly include the airbrush kit, and most likely my Savage SS. The Savage is a roller, needs electronics. I picked up the shock towers for the X conversion, and titanium rods, metal servo saver and some other stuff for it. I was buying it all off ebay, but lost the auction on the damn diff's and that was pretty much the last time I looked at that truck. This will probably cost a *LOT* to ship.

Bleh I dunno. I've still got a .12 CV-R & some other stuff to sift through and sell..
 
I would recommend that you subscribe to this thread and request an Email notification when someone replies. That would make things easier all the way around.
