That's totally fine. I was mostly conscious about if there were any obvious red flags that would make me avoid purchasing it. I've never seen a 6s in person, and am yet to familiarize myself with their builds.

How much are they asking for it?

Looks like it has a V4 motor mount in it.

Different motor as well.

If it has the correct A-Arms and axles then the arms will have an "S" printed on the bottom of them.

Could be a Typhon with senton wheels and body if not

The front right lower arm appears to have the S. It's hard to tell but I think I see it on the Right rear lower arm too.

Def a real Senton , and a V3 at that . The V2 Senton had sway bars and boots on the shocks as well as aluminum smooth shock caps . If this were a Typhon , then they removed the sway bars / put the smaller arms on it , changed the shock towers ( they are diff from Typhon to Senton ) . Shocks are diff to , but hard to tell by eye ,unless you measure them . Yes , cage is missing , and has a V4 sliding motor mount on it . Orig body gone . Either way , it looks clean and IMO , is a good deal !!!! Buy it !!!!

V3 Senton had sway bars and shock boots too. V3 Typhon had the same setup with the sway bars and shocks. Caps were plastic too.

The newest body model before they were discontinued didn’t have sway bars.

The V1 and V2 Sentons were the light green bodies with sway bars and shock boots , V3 was the dark green Camo looking body . There never was a V4 Senton . The V3 has no sway bars or shock boots . These are both V3 , I bought the one on the right brand new , and added the sway bars . The link below is a member that has a brand new V2 . Notice the different shock caps also . One thing that I have not seen on another Senton 6s is the small splash shields behind the front tires that mount onto the steering rack top plate on his NOS V2 Senton 6s .

Why did they discontinue the senton?

 

[3x9rtse]

Why did they discontinue the senton?

Because they are idiots !!!! LOL It shares the same chassis / electronics as the Typhon , they very easily could have left it alone and in production , NTM , that they still sell now all the parts for it !!!
