B3 top plate #9130


Yes, I missed that - Thanks Snoop' !

I would recommend a decent 19-turn motor, one with ball-bearings. This will have tons of torque to muscle that six gear tranny, and still have pretty good top end speed - usually won't be as drastically tuned as a 27-turn motor, which has timing cranked, etc., to get the most out of stock class limi...

Ooohh! Yeah! RC10 General Lee is Kewl... I have an RC10 with a goofy coupe body of some sort mounted (see below) - I would love to swap it out for a nice General Lee body! If anyone finds a good '69 Charger fit for an RC10, I would buy a duplicate of your creation for a very fair price. :shock: &quo...

Sounds like fun, but, that body is too nice to race, IMHO.

I saw this topic in R/C Car Action not that long ago, they recommended [pancar]'s method with the exacto blade, then snapping off the excess, just like he explained. ((I pretty much suck at all manner of bodywork, myself...))

I like a good fake breast, although, an equally good real one would get my vote any day...

I would definitely buy the repro tires for $75, although, I am not completely uninterested at $100 - it's a bit more difficult to 'play with them' at $100.

Great build, awesome paint--job, I love a good runner/basher - that's what R/C is all about! :D ((Thanks for resurrecting the thread, pastimesteve.)) B3/T3/TC3 are the newest Associated models I own, last of the Gene Husting designed models, right? BTW - What distinguishes a B2 front top plate from ...

I am not an expert, but, I think smaller than about 0.270", is not really worth trying to revive.

'Stunning' is the right word... Definitely a lust-worthy collection.

Cheers!

P.S. - are any of them runners?

MMmmm... Paddock girls! I like the last pic too, the mean looking girl with her hands on her hips, and the choker chain. :shock: There seems to be a mysterious lack of 'curves' among the group of four girls posing together? ((No worries, I'm a supporting member of the Itty-Bitty-*itty-Committee!)) :...

Very impressive collection, although I'd want to run 'em around the yard once-in-a-while! :D How did you mount the rear 'jellybean' wheels to the front of that gold pan (appears to be a 2wd car, right?)? Also, do you have a thread with all your Tamiya stuff pictured (that Scorcher is insane!)??? :sh...

Very nice. I have pipe-dreams about building a track in the yard... Maybe someday.

Very nice pics here; I am with some of the others who can hardly manage a clear shot of the kitchen table, much less a 150mph race car... :? I don't want to hijack this post, but: ((Any Moto-GP fans here? Valentino Rossi is off to another impressive year with his win in Qatar today! And how about Ni...

Sorry for the duplicate, not sure what the hiccup was.

Looking forward to build pics on this one!

An 834b is really the only vintage R/C that I still want to add to my collection - I have bid on more than a few, just no deals, yet...
