I've struck gold. (unless the ebay seller was high)
 
so i went to a garage sale (there was an xmod case there. just the case and the left mirror to a silver rsx. no rsx though, they "lost" it :mad: ). anyway, i saw two little white stars inside red and blue rectangles on a box. so i instantly went and bought it. payed $4. yep, four dollars. it was a model kit, completely sealed (only problem is the box looks ike it was caught in a flood, nothing else is damaged). so i got home. you know when you get a good deal on something and you hope it to be worth hundreds or thousands of dollars, then you check online and it's worth about $3? not this time. one of these with a good box is currently buy-it-now $150. so mine should probably get close to $100, $75 at the least. i'll let you contemplate what i might have. i'll post pics when i feel like it, or if someone guesses it.
here are some hints:
tamiya
1:6 scale
only came with two rims...
pre-painted. (color is hidden here somewhere [not very good])

Is it a buggy or a motorcycle?

firebird999 06-13-2009 01:42 AM

here's a hint:

if you are launched over an american bus from the back, the driver's seat would be in the location that my hint is in this thread.

texan_idiot25 06-13-2009 01:52 AM

It's a motorcycle, CB750 is my guess.

firebird999 06-13-2009 02:09 AM

nope, but i think you figured out the hint.

here's another hint:

the previous hint is my model's son.

kungpow420 06-13-2009 03:23 AM

cb1100 or maybe cx500 just a guess.

firebird999 06-13-2009 03:37 AM

nope.

AeroSynch 06-15-2009 07:18 PM

Thats what i was going to say. :-?
lol I just couldnt remember it last night. :p

firebird999 07-31-2009 02:47 AM

forgot all about this thread, i suppose i'll revive it.

and no, not Evel.

here's a revised version of the last hint:
The Kawasaki Ninja in my avatar is from the right timeframe to be the son of my model.

and a new hint:
It's also the same make.

stang_racer 07-31-2009 03:51 AM

so its a kawi, street or dirt, are we going time frame or bike class?

firebird999 07-31-2009 01:49 PM

oo, street or dirt, that's a toughie. i'll have to say both. i've seen some on dirt tires and some on street tires.
and really whatever you want to guess, i'll just let you know it you're close enough.
