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

I guess today's Associated Models would be "Commercentre" cars.... I know I've said this before, but somebody really needs to come up with a list of questions and fax them over to Pete Cooney, the purchasing agent for Associated. He's been there since the Edinger days, and he knows the sou...

Had to check back in here... I just discovered another term I didn't know about (and I don't think the Associated guys know about, either)..."Edinger car"... I'm really going to have to go through my box of old parts, I bet there are three or four of those old green and silver Associated m...

I'd bet not. Gene's never been a web-surfing kinda guy.

Yeah, I remember a few years back when people first started to think of original RC10's a "vintage" car, that we were getting quite a few requests for white parts. We really did scour the warehouse, and came up with quite a few parts, but not enough to do whole kits. Also, when Garry Owen ...

Call Andy Jacobsen, I think he still works at Pegasus Hobbies in Montclair, CA. (909) 982- 6507. He used to pull the bodies for Team Losi,

I'm sure he will know what the heck is going on, if someone bought the molds or has (criminal activity) backpoured a body to create their own body tool.

Dang!!! An ISDERA!!!

That's a RARE body.

Doug... Amazing work then, amazing work now. I think that M&M's body you did was the one that made me realize your immense talent. That was GROUNDBREAKING for the era... it stuck in my mind, that's for sure. Probably the only thing I really remember to this day from the Chicago RCHTA show that y...

With the blue and red Mustang body, full interior? That was one of my most favorite paint jobs I ever did.

Oh, Maaaaann.. That style paint scheme brings back some memories... I will have to post a BUNCH of pics...

Duuuuuude... I saw that car at Ron's House.. Magnesium arms, right?... those SPR-1's were THE SHIZ-NIT during the heyday of Dirt Oval.

Hey, what's in that photograph behind the car?... if anything, I'd say THAT was one of my paint jobs... unless Doug did it.

Dang... you guys are embarrassing me... That SRP body... almost certainly, yes... I can't say I exactly recall that one, but I did a LOT of bodies for Ron Young, and this one (a Premier Designs body) certainly would be in that time frame, 91, 92, 93 or so. Off topic, again: In fact, I did show bodie...

Yep... Before I worked for Associated, I freelanced some ad and design work for them, and did this body as a display car. Ten years later, When I put together my vintage gold tub, I found this body in the old trade show booth boxes. It's not exactly first generation like the rest of the chassis, but...

I think it was in a "Speed Secrets" and in a "Top ten Reasons why Associated's Best" ad, too... there was a matching 10T truck, but I never found it.

Tooo funny.... yeah, I did a few...

Here's one of my favorite images, though...
