It doesn't look like it's that bad of a deal, with it being artr. It looks like everything was purchased New for the build and they did upgrade the axles it looks like. Those mt tires are also a bit expensive

Those are some interesting headers. I wonder what they come from.

I've heard the Redcat chassis plates bend easily. The AR60 axles will need lots of upgrades unless he already did it. For that price I would build what you want and you could do it for probably around the same price.

Get a smt10 chassis on ebay, i found a complete one with a body, trans, axles, links, everything minus electronics and tires for $200. I bought the jconcepts wheels and tires ($125). The rest I pieced together from various parts. All in all I'm probably $600 into it, brand new, including the brushless system, radio, battery, charger, everything.
