Last night I posted a thread stating I was looking for a novarossi 421b motor, kambo13 responded to it within a few minutes stating he had one and was willing to sell it, I ask him if its the 6 bolt head or the 4 bolt head and he states he has both of them, he said hes got two of the 6 bolt motors and one of the 4 bolt motors. After asking for pictures he sends me pictures of the motors, after the pictures his story starts getting kinda shady, the story changes to hes got one of the 6 bolt motors and two of the 4 bolt motors. The two motors that have 4 bolt heads arent even 421's they are crono's, not sure which model. Here are the pictures he sent me of "his" motors,



after doing some research on the crono motors I came across two differnet forums that both contained the same exact pictures he sent me claiming they were his motors.
about 3/4ths of the way down this page is the buggy with the motor in it, post #45

and about 3/4ths of the way down this page are the pictures of just the motor, post #46
http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_29...y_crono/tm.htm

After doing a simple search for info on the motor he claimed to have i came across the same exact pictures Kambo had sent me, but the pictures were posted by two different people from somewhere completely different than where Kambo13 claimed to live and the pictures were posted several years apart...example: Kambo13 said he's from Australia, the pictures of the buggy were posted by someone from Pennsylvania in April 2008, and the pictures of just the motor were posted by someone from Michigan in June 2005. Anyways, I just wanted to give you guys a heads up as to what he's doing.

Wow....good find.


Seems to be a TON of midnight mechanics around here lately.
