Factory Works towers, Vintage RC battery strap, and V2 truck shocks. Splash in some blue hardware and a JConcepts motor plate.

JConcepts body and repo Jammin wing. Paint is actually blue but the color change shows purple in sunlight.

JC Racing wheels and rear tires, with Losi fronts.

Novak esc and receiver, Futaba mini servo, and a Reedy stock motor.

This is my Chris vanAir 2016 rc10t build. https://site.petitrc.com/setup/associated/setuprc10t/RC10T_ChrisVanAir_HRH20161128/
I have a build thread on this one. “Sure. I’ll start out easy. This is basically a box stock rc10t. How hard could it be?”

The answer is quite.

Very thankfully I received from help from Chris on his truck.

Basically this is a zebra rc10t set up according to the spec sheet.
Body painted by Jeremy off the grid designs.

2stage foams from someone in Israel
Carvers and filpouts( nos from a place in the San Fernando valley)
Thorp delrin idler
Ghee shock pistons
Hobbywing justock
Reedy m3 17.5 254

I think I basically made this 3x over as this started with a completely new chassis as the basis.

Hirobo Zerda : More of a rescue and rebuild than "build" but described in zerda from wreck to runner thread. FS A3 receiver and generic ESC, new steering servo, Alien Mid deck and restored front 4WD with drive cups and dogbones. Hirobo Toyota Celica wheels. Zerda wheels that came with it are very basic design but ok for on the shelf. A 12mm hex option can be fitted for running. Also Rockn City wheel option.
Kyosho tomahawk driver until zerda repro driver from Penguin gets painted

Is this an RC10T converted to gas?

It's an early RC10GT. Not a conversion.

I was going to ask the exact same question. Never saw an early GT with the original RC10 Tub before, you need to show us more...

Pretty sure all of the pictures in the build thread are dead links now. But here’s the thread. I recently re-acquired it after I sold it.
