RC cars wanted

[jd-science.livejournal.com]

I am teaching an electronics class this week to some kids, and we'd like to do a hack we found in Make magazine involving an RC car. Unfortunately, we don't have any cars, and those within our budget are itsy-bitsy. I know there are lots of geeky type people in the area with loads of electronics gizmos lying around. If anyone has an old RC car they'd like to donate, please let me know ASAP.

Also, if anyone has any ideas about good (cheap) electronics projects for students who are visually impaired, that would be awesome.

Thanks.
