RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Speaking of personalized builds, one member on TC has built this beauty: https://i.ibb.co/dBTVcB9/IMG-3078.jpg I think the gold anno with the light blue color he selected looks amazing! You can read about the build and see more pics here: https://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?/topic/106419-wtcc...

Just a little FYI, the two panels before and after the shock tower are black on box art. I reckon AE has included these masks so customers can personalize their builds -- which is good. Also, box art has side and front windows removed and I've done that in the past but I probably won't do it the 40t...

I am pretty good at painting and doing bodies, but I am new to AE and the RC10 so I bought this one. Came with real netting attached to the roll cage. https://i.ibb.co/xDLtbTT/vvv.webp That looks great! Did it include the painted driver? Hi Doug, it did NOT come with the driver. I plan on painting ...

That's some nice work, Mike. It looks great with the CC decals.

Anyway, you just can't beat painted stripes.

For decals, I just warm the vinyl with a hair dryer, then press and hold them down tightly with my thumb while the vinyl cools and they will stay in place.

...I do not trust AE cut lines or holes. I would get it mounted first then paint. For the body mount holes I like to leave the posts off and get the body fitting properly, then add the rear post by looking straight down and making a mark, install the post and cut the hole. Then on the front use a l...

I'm guessing it makes you a wheelophile? :wink: Anyway, those look nice. Where did you find them? BTW, a word of caution when you are fitting the body. Drill the front body post hole last and ignore the center point that is marked -- it's way too far aft. :x Wheelophillia :D, or rimplaysia. Thanks!...

Exactly what I was thinking... wow, wouldn't have guessed A&L. That'd look cool with box art paint... or Jammin Jay style like Scr8p's replica... https://www.rc10talk.com/download/file.php?id=58860&mode=view ...but with Associated decals, of course :lol: Yep, hard to go wrong with the JJ st...

Anyone know the name of the condition, or sickness, that compels one to build the wheels first, with every model? https://i.imgur.com/CFTap5r.jpg Can't quit doing this. Cart before the horse syndrome? I'm guessing it makes you a wheelophile? :wink: Anyway, those look nice. Where did you find them? ...

I wasn't planning to buy a 40th (holding out for what comes next) but while shopping on Liquid for parts for other projects a few days back, it just kept speaking to me then FOMO kicked in. Since this is a limited edition and there likely won't be parts support (part numbers have been removed from t...

I wonder how many of these they made.

They probably have another 75.

I am now revising my estimate to 7k

Yes, they offer them on ebay and in their store but not on their website. Very strange.

I reckon this project is relegated to back burner status while I search for reasonably priced dogbones.
I will not pay crazy ebay prices for them.

Agree that LiquidRC has Super Fast shipping - usually same day. I’m in Mass and usually have my parts in 2-3 days from the order. Now searching their website… that’s another matter :lol: I halfway signed up to comment on this post. I thought I was missing a search bar on their website or something....

$379.99 plus $0.99 shipping and they don't collect sales tax.

Very tempting.

Just checked Liquid again.
That's it, they're gone.

It's our first body, the 9500 Chevy stadium truck. Boki has the mold now so they will be available. As mentioned in the pic Custom Works was pulling them for us. They also helped with teaching Chris and Daryl how to make the bodies. Oh WOW, :shock: I would have never guessed that it was sold by A&a...
