Dumb question... are these old batteries even useful to run a car on? I have a few old NiCAD packs and they are totally worthless now, I always assumed they had a usable lifetime then were just totally worthless... or are these for shelf queens?

Nice Car. Nice job. Now it won't be long before you tweak another one for your stable. 8) About that.... I been casually looking at early gold chassis cars on and off. But last night picked up a B3 Team car, too good a deal, could not pass it up 100% complete, bunch of spare parts, bearings, spare ...

I wish I knew more about mine... I wanted one for years and years and got mine in 2004 or 2005 from a guy I went to tech school with. Its a late CE that looks to of been run hard, broken, repaired poorly, and run some more. then stripped of electronics before I got it. It sat in a box from then till...

I wish I had a free Graphite car! Nice score!

Would you be willing to take some good pictures of the boxart car? Colour or B/W will work.

now that my CE is nearing compleation I would like to do up the body for it, thinking I'd like to do something similar to the original boxart but all I have are a few pictures that have been posted here: http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii76/slotcarrod/CEBox.jpg or I would consider doing something...

I went with a el cheapo Venom 19d. So far I am unimpressed, but I'll reserve judgement for after I get some decent batteries in it. If anything its a good starter motor I can graduate from once I get to know the car better.

is there any sort of special turnbuckle wrench to adjust the endlinks?

ok, here be the pictures to go along with it: http://digitaloutsider.org/chris/rc10/image044.jpg nice new pinion and spur, i don't need any sort of lube on these do I? http://digitaloutsider.org/chris/rc10/image045.jpg http://digitaloutsider.org/chris/rc10/image046.jpg you can sort of see where the ...

All I know is the stock pinion calls for a 48p, 21tooth for the stealth cars, I went with that for a starting point.

Out of curiosity what is a fair price what looks to be a early Cadillac rc10 all white plastics, early front arms, 6 gear a AE stock motor and "some old novak ESC",the box and instruction manual, no tires but otherwise complete. Chassis looks pretty scratched up on the bottom, worse then m...

:mrgreen: It runs, it drives! Quite possibly the first time since the 90s! I need to get some pictures up. Not much left now. For some reason the A&L rack I am using rubs ever so slightly on the left side but not the right. I think the washer I am using under the mounting point is thicker on the...

it is smooth, just feels like some resistance to it where my gear diff cars seem to have next to no resistance in how they move, this is also my first ball diff car so perhaps its just me not being used to it.

Funny you mention that. There is a early... looks like a Cadillac car on my local CL for about $100 with the box that is tempting me. I like the black plastics, but the white plastics are really cool too. Picked up a new Venom 19turn motor yesterday, Should have it installed this evening once I get ...

I kinda like how it looks in pink myself!

enough whining from me. some progress. new oil in all the shocks, all were still full of old nasty oil except one, that leaked from the top seal. Turns out the B4 rebuild kit seems to work on these older shocks quite well. cleaned the rest of the parts give or take, got a few odds and ends done. Tur...
