Help!
Tamiya Striker or Sonic Fighter chassis
I have an old Tamiya Sonic Fighter, and the chassis is broken
It uses the same chassis as the Striker. I just bought this on eBay and the guy said there was nothing wrong with it except he didn't show the poor repair he attempted on the chassis with sheet metal and white paint. If anyone has one, or knows where I can get one, please let me know. I've seen them on eBay for 99$ but I just dropped 80$ for this buggy and I feel I got burned and need to find something a bit more reasonable. BTW, I know this is probably the ugliest Tamiya along with the Striker ever built but I'm trying to relive my youth lol Thanks everyone... |

I've seen that online as well but I still can't find a reasonably priced chassis. On eBay they want more for the body kit that comes with the chassis than the buggy is worth.

Here is the picture of the auction, only picture so I saw that the original box was included and thought that it would be a good deal.

Here is what I got, there was a patch job on it and with an areal view this would have never been seen.

Best part about this was that the sales guy had like 20 more in the back, they are sitting on gold and they don't even know it. Awesome deal now I can't wait to rebuild it, I think box art paint scheme is my goal. Thanks everyone... |

Oh I did ask them if they had a Striker kit so maybe I can switch it up and they said they would look around for one. All in all a good day. |

Guess that one will wait till they re-release it and then I'll be able to get one. |
