Wow, that's a really cool setup you got PlastiZap, and I wish I had even half of your skill at building scale models. Are you sure you didn't just use a shrink ray on a real Hurricane? With regard to setups and pressures Showcase, as a beginner just experiment and find what works for you, I spent a...

That airbrush should work out great for painting lexan bodies and probably scale models as well. I too will be using Faskolor and will be spraying it for the first time on my RC12E this weekend. I'll let you know how it goes. I'll be thinning this paint with rubbing alcohol and shooting through an I...

Unfortunately I don't have any spare suspension parts but do check the PM I just sent you.

I think the whole thing looks awesome! Love the skull prints all over the chassis. I would go for a set of aluminum nerf bars too if you decided to make a run. Can't wait to start on my 10L. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread.

Cheers,

were the tires and wheels NOS pre-mounted? I'm having trouble finding tires for my 12e wheels :( It took months of searching on ebay for me to find the tires and wheels for this car.

Very nice :!: They are simple cars but it takes alot of work to bring them back. If you can't save the radio tray you might want to contact board member "reign79" He might be able to set you up. Thanks RC10resto! If I can't get the tray into decent shape then I may go the replacement rout...

And here she is with a new TOJ Sports body. This body had light damage to the rear and required some trimming. It's just rough cut in these photos and will require more sanding and polishing to fine tune the shape. Now to come up with a paint scheme. :? http://i182.photobucket.com/albums/x277/Jagdge...

WOW that really looks Great!!!! Thanks bearrickster ! It took a lot of work to get it to this point but it sure was fun. I'm really enjoying this resto build. It's fun hunting down old bits on e-Bay too. I ended up with two more Associated cars for restoration from all the e-Bay searching. :D This ...
