Tamyia Fox Chassis

[hughjass]

Anyone have a chassis for one they would be willing to part with at a
reasonable cost?

IF NOT.. anyone looking for parts for one? Only thing broke is the
chassis, but most all other parts are well used, but functional.

Thanks!

no. monster beetle was based on the frog chassis.
the fox came along after the frog - about a year after the first rc-10 hit
the tracks and walked away with every single trophy.
The fox had nice long travel suspension arms, but was still a tamiya....more
complicated than it had to be and heavier.

Oh, i see by your email address that you are likely from wisconsin, but if
you happened to be a displaced packers fan living in the new york area,
contact Brownies Hobbies in Port Richmond Staten Island. Sorry i dont have
thier number...
They have a great stock of old tamiya parts. They helped me restore 2 basket
case hotshots to mint condition...well ebay helped too, but i couldnt find a
fox chassis on ebay.
I did find a few cheap parts-cars, but they all had busted chassis too!

Nope... not a cheesehead, but pretty close nearby... anything is better
than rooting for the Detriot Lions.. LOL

I really don't want to spend a lot of money on it, but if I could get a
chassis, that would be cool. OR find another truck/car/whatever to put
it in. Thought about putting all the electrical stuff in a goose decoy
and throwing a driveshaft with a prop on it. heh (Sorry, we have long,
cold winters up here, got to have something to keep from going insane!)

Heavier is the keyword... it glitched while coming across my neighbor's
driveway and drove straight into his aluminum garage door. Left a
seriously nice dent. I think I could have accomplished the same thing by
throwing a brick at his garage door. LMAO
