Hello All,
I have an old (2005 maybe?) Savage SS that my Dad and I used to work on together when I was younger. We built it together and it really got me interested in RC. Sadly a few years later in 2007 he passed away and I took all the RC stuff we had and boxed it up. I've looked at it a few times but never had the heart to get it going again.
Fast forward to now and I have two boys of my own and my oldest is 5 and into Monster trucks and RC so I was wondering what if anything I could do to get it running? I don't remember much on it other than it was missing a fuel tank at the time and possibly a few other miscellaneous bits. I guess my real question is, if I spent money to get it running again and we needed to buy replacement parts, would I find them? What if I needed a new motor, would I get one that still fit? Or as sentimental as it is, would I still be better off getting a newer kit (id like something we could build together and NOT RTR).
Thanks,
Matt
