I think it looks sweet with the black suspension parts. Your car inspired me to go after the 12i I just won.

Cheers,

Nice! I was following it too. I got his tires for my 12is I'm starting to wish I had never found this forum or the 12e. :P So far I have four Associated cars in my stash. I picked up a set of new rear wheels as well. I have another set of front wheels already restored and ready to roll. This should...

Sorry for the delay on this project but I've been really busy of late. I've got new Jagermester decals now as the old ones were bad. I'll have to sand the wing down and repaint again for the new decals. I've also decided to paint the body from the outside as it has too many dents and dings. I have t...

Just swiped this guy off e-Bay. More than I really wanted to pay but....! :mrgreen: My 12e needed a companion anyway. It will will be taken down and cleaned up. I plan on getting her running too. This will be an operational shelf queen like my 12e. (no actual running unless on carpet.) Will start on...

I was going to ask about that. Thanks gomachv! I found a PDF for the radio too so I'll be looking that over.

Is that resistor in the right way? It seems your running on the shorter side of the wind. I think that is the brake side of the resistor? Fantastic car and pics! Good eye, Rod! He's got the red and black reversed on the resistor... But the 2F also does not have servo reversing, so I suspect the thr...

I knew I should have asked about the resistor first! :oops: I've never put one of the mechanical speed controls together before. I wanted...

Thanks for fixing my last video klavy69. I've got the hang of it now.

And the chassis is done! :mrgreen: http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x277/Jagdgeschwader2/RC12e/IMG_9281.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x277/Jagdgeschwader2/RC12e/IMG_9407.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x277/Jagdgeschwader2/RC12e/IMG_9392.jpg http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x277/...

That is one awesome collection of 12L'syou have! Your restorations are superb too.

Cheers,

That is a sweet RC12E you have. 8) 8) 8) You have the box too! :shock: That spacer is supposed to be cut off on the spur gear side. Yours has been broken though. That should be an easy part to make . I would make some covers out of lexan to hide the holes around the rear body mounts. It's rare to fi...

If your trying to keep it original there are a pair of resistor mounts on eBay for about $4. They are in a parma bag but exactly the same as the associated ones I have saved up for my project Thanks gomachv! I'll have a look at those. Search parma 4025. They ship from france, but only $4 shipped. J...

The radio system works now! Over the fourth I gave the receiver circuit board a bath in circuit board cleaner and soldered on an new antenna lead to replace the old torn one. The thing works like a champ! This is a great day for the restoration of this car! The car now has it's original radio and re...
