Not much info, seller not willing to send photos.
I spoke to him, he said it is NIB.

Tempting, as I had one of these when I was younger and drove it into the
groud.
I wish Tamiya would make this one again.

Damn, I can't help but think $1,399 could be better spent on a more modern
rig. But I understand what it is like to want something you used to have.

I had one once, too. Brandy new in 1986. Fast forward to 2 years ago. I
bought one again, off of eBay, just like you are considering.. It was a
let-down. The thrill just wasn't there like the first time. And, I had
spent $600 this time instead of $200.

I seriously advise you NOT to blow such a large wad of cash. Like the other
guy said, spend it on something else. My advice, spend $400 on a nice new
R/C and take the other $1000 and get a super-hot high priced escort for the
night. Bang the crap out of her.

And I'd never buy anything from someone who "refuses to send pics" of
something I was considering spending an inordinate amount of $$ on.
