Did you pick up the CR bodies on eBay from A&L?

Team Losi XX-4.

Very cool. Was this a conversion kit?

wrong post.

Go for the RPM long rod ends in black. I believe you can also still find the Losi ones, but in black. Grey will set you back a bunch if you can even find them.

Okay, did a electronics refresh.

New Tekin G12c III and new Novak Mercury.

Also swapped out the bowtie tires for Team Losi IFMAR Pins (I believe).

Very, very, very good looking XXT!

Wow!

Thanks!

The paint on that XX-T/CR is wicked....seems like I should know it for some reason, but I can't place it. Who laid the paint? A local guy here in Fresno has been doing all my paint. It's actually a magazine art paint job with a few edits. Maybe that's where you've seen it?? :mrgreen: http://s26.pos...

are you going to leave it as it is?

I just purchased a more period correct Tekin ESC (G-12c III) and will probably change out the receiver to something else, maybe a Novak Mercury.

Other than that, the body will be painted and it should be done!

Purchased this used RC10B3 on a facebook group for $120 shipped. It came as shown, with a new body, which I thought was a great deal. Overall, it did not see much use, or any. Sadly, while the car was in near new shape, someone had to take a pair of pliers to the shock bodies and tie rods. All four ...

Is that an original set of decals or reproduction? I am trying to find some for mine!

Thanks!

They are an original set. I did send a scan for repop, but not sure they were released.

I think it came out quite nice. What do you use to straighten your cut lines? Years of practice, sharp blades, and a fine file set. As a kid, I absolutely hated how I could not cut bodywork cleanly. I always wondered how they could cut lines like the wheel wells so perfectly smooth. For a long time...

Just got these back from paint. Enjoy
