Post by navy viper »

Hello everyone- I posted a want list for some ATC parts, but I wanted to ask your opinion on how hard it will be to find these parts ? or how much do you think I will have to pay to get them ? The parts I need

Wheels X 5
Axles X 4

I think it would be easier to buy an ATC for the wheels unless anyone here has any spare. Dont see them often on ebay...

ATCs can be picked up cheaply, lots start at silly prices or go for high prices but the odd one can go pretty cheap.

The axles can easily be re-made with modern steel rod of the right gauge, so I'd do that rather than holding out for originals.

Or you can use an old coat hanger that is the right gauge too. :-)

I won a auction with a incomplete ATC for around GBP 1.00 + shipping & then foolishly got in a bidding war for another ATC up for auction in worse shape then the one I got for GBP 1.00 !! So I'll still need at least 1 axle to complete the best looking ATC. So I have decided to complete them both , however long it takes ? any help much appreciated & thank you for your thoughts & suggestions

You'd be better off selling the parts and bidding on a complete one, navy viper - even the spares goes for silly money. Oh, and never bid until 7 seconds remaining!!

both of these ATC are going to be customs . neither one of them have the seat belt , missiles, Missile launcher or the stretcher & one of the guns has a broken barrel with no top hatch and its missing the front windshield part. I just need the wheels & axles to have them display decently enough on my shelf, thats as complete as I intend to get them.
Thank you for the advice on the auctions "the Baron"

Well the good news is that I was able to find the right Gauge steel rod for axles that I needed for both ATC. (Thank you for the suggestion Red Baron) so now I only need 5 wheels. if it seems as though I will have to pay out the wazoo for some tires to complete these "projects" I may try to use axles & tires from the American variant (A.P.C/ATC) & just paint those Black ?

Thundershot- yes that auction came with 3 ATC tires & 1 panther tire ,2 axle rods , a Black Major & a medical case for the Medic
