savage...opinions please


       Remove this ad - become a site supporter!
I know of a Savey up for sale.
Claims to have 2000 into the truck if all bought new.
It has an OS .21 installed and the origonal .21 motor that came with it. The radio is a Futaba. Most of the original parts are included.
Needs a battery and possibly a streeing servo.
Replaced the pull start with a drill start.
Every part up graded to aluminum front to back.

In these pics it shows a chrome roll bar but it's not on it anymore also the aluminum rims in pics are not included but everything else in the pic is on the truck. It also has aluminum bumpers which are not in the pics.

Has a couple pained bodys for it also.

(a little sceptical because the seller was saying at first it came with a OPS 28 motor, but that changed)

He is asking 500...

OPINIONS????
(was 400 and I was going to snage it.. but thought I would ask for opinions)

sorry if I posted in the wrong area. I am pretty sure some loals might know of this truck, thats why I ask.

Not true.. Although in this case, GPM is crappy aluminum, molded, not CNC'd...

You dont see people breaking aluminum emaxx's (with the right parts, of course.)

Imo, this savage only serves as a shelf queen, nothing more.

the .21 would be a very week motor for that heave truck I am guessing it probably is about a 20lb truck, with all that alloy its would mostly be for show, if you scratch the purple it would look really bad

you could not build a truck like that for 500$ and you would be crazy to want to drive it.
