Got to love ebay

Today I won a faulty "Pro version" (metal tracks/ gears) Henglong IR King Tiger off ebay for £97 :D

"The faults with the tank are as follows:
The Turret does not go up or down.
The tracks Jam when going into reverse. The do not align with the wheels."


Some years ago I bought a faulty Matorro KT for £90 ish and the only fault was that the tracks had been put on wrong. I've been waiting to pick up some cheap metal tracks and gears before I rebuild it.

Now I can swap the tracks over, do the HL KT up and sell it. Hopefully I'll get my money back so I end up with free metal tracks for my Matorro.

Love it when a plan comes together, even if I've had to wait a while.
