Description: Here up for sale is a used, running Aurora Thunderjet chassis from the mid 1960s. It is the solid-rivet type, and has a red/green/goldish wire motor with gray laminations, black magnets, and AJ's silicone rear tires factory bonded to aluminum threaded wheels. The rear tires measure 7/16" o.d. by about 5/32" wide, and they work well. Front tires are o-rings. The front wheels are in the back hole position, but you can easily move the front axle to the forward hole to fit other TJet bodies where appropriate. Front wheels have been painted silver. Depending on the body style you use, you may or may not need to either raise the back of the body with spacers or enlarge the rear wheel wells to fit the rear tires. Bottom of chassis has some green tarnish present, and some red paint applied to the back bottom area. Pickup shoes have wear but still have some useful running life. The motor and gear train run fairly smoothly. Guide pin and screws not included..
