Yankee Viper NIB with extra painted body. 25cc. Price?

Post by Csxcobra »

I was wondering what a new in the original shipping box, Yankee 1/4 scale Viper. Red/White stripes. 25cc Viking engine and an extra new Blue/White stripe body is worth these days.
Never had a drop of gas. Perfect condition. Any information on the engine, car and its value would be greatly appreciated. Thanks....

i would think in the $1500 range although things are slow right now and it seems people are not buying. But if i were to value it, i would say definately in the 1500-2k range when the market gets good again...

Thank you for the quick response. Does the Viking engine sound correct? He said it was 25cc.
Did these bodies come painted from the factory? Were radios installed? Thank you...

viking does not sound right. They used a Fox F7 27cc motor in the 1/4 scales along with zenoahs and a 15cc motor. Yankee did have some bodies factory painted i believe or the dealer did it?

No radios but they did have a turn force steering servo.

I didn't realize they were so expensive when new. I just purchased the car from an estate sale. I saw it when I went to pick up a few airplanes. I remember seeing it in the original box and was blown away. Beautiful candy apple red with white stripes. I haven't seen the blue body yet. The car should arrive mid next week. It still has all the literature/manual still sealed in the plastic bag.
