Engines and Kits - Tom Dixon

Engines and Kits from Tom Dixon

I have accumulated a great number of .35 to .46 stunt engines and kits (Brodak, etc) in the last year, mostly from guys getting too old to use them, or after their death.  There are too many to list here.

The kits are complete, opened, but never removed from the box.  I’ll sell these for $50.00 each, plus shipping.  They usually sold for $200.00 each.
The engines are all in excellent shape.  Where appropriate I have done my stunt rework on them.  All have NVA, venturi, and tongue muffler. (That’s 50 bucks in parts alone!) and are between $85.00 and $150.00.

If interested, send a #10 S.A.S.E for list and current availability.

  The list sounds like it already exists to copy and paste.

An easy way to make the list digital is to take a picture of it with an iphone.

Seriously; You assume that a guy who doesn't do internet or e-mail is going to post on the internet with an iPhone?

I saw this post and sent a SASE to him two days ago. When I get the list I will post it here for everyone to see.

I don't think that's fair to those guys who actually took the time to mail a SASE.
I hope Tom sells to those that went the extra mile and followed instructions. O

It's about selling stuff not making people jump hurdles. What difference does it make how the word gets out. It would be a help to post the list.

#10 S.A.S.E

Hi Jim/Tom. I figured this out from "google".  A number 10, stamped and sell addressed envelope.

It was easy enough to follow Tom's directions. I sent him the envelope as requested, he returned it with the list. I called him and bought 3 of the kits (which were a smoking deal). Tom has always done business through the mail or over the phone, everyone knows he doesn't use the internet........

I guess I was late to the party. Followed the directions and never received my envelope back. ‍

When I got the list almost all kits were gone and a lot of 40 size motors still available. The list was mostly motors not many kits from the get-go
