The Grasshopper was kit number 43 from Tamiya. A 1/10 scale off-road vehicle.

Specifications

1/10 scale off-road vehicle

monocoque plastic chassis

solid axle rear-wheel drive drivetrain with bevel gear differential

independent single A-arm front suspension

coil spring suspension all around

RS-380 electric motor

extra wide rear paddle tires and ribbed front tires

hard plastic ABS body shell

I've had it for about 2 years - but only ever used it about 5 times. I'ts in good nick and has all the bits & pieces, including glow plug battery, tools, nitro (better not post nitro to Darwin tho). It might need a bit of a tune etc cause it has been sitting in my closet for a year and a bit.

I think I paid about $550++ for it - I'll sell it for $200 plus postage.

    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
    • Sorry I meant that we are building the EH for a client.
    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
