its a old corvette chassis (got it from the sticker on the bottom lol) but i bought it from black dragon and he said he only used it a few times, so it mite be old, but its lightly used, and it looks almost brand new.

edit, well i got it all put back together to find i had blown the range =[

Yeah you deffinitly blow your range resistor,you've probably bridge a wire or the antenna. I've never replaced them, but it doesn't seem so hard, you just need to get some new resistors.
