The body on the "mint" car wasnt mint. Bad tape lines, some cracks, and poorly cut out. I pin striped the white, fixed the cracks, dremeled all the edges. Turned out real decent. I have a new body i will paint w/new decals, i will probably put on the mint car if it turns out good, so this ...

Resized_20190307_165221_6729.jpeg After going to OS discontinued site, i was able to dig up a part#, wouldnt u know it, Tower Hobbies had 1 in stock! Got that crap comin! Now the Engine will be a new CZ-R completely. It was only $26 shipped Also, my new inverted decal sheet came in from MCI This co...

Thanks for the comments and info. As for the cracks, I took Hudy battery strapping tape and put it over the crack on the out side of the body. Then on the inside i used C6000 clear (like shoe goo but better) and spread it over the cracks. Once its dry u peel off the tape and can barely see the crack...

Thank you - can you please help a non-american member and explain what C6000 Clear is, and if possible post a link to this? I need a cubic meter (proving I'm not local to this forum :mrgreen: ) of this thing if this works as you describe! Thanks, Paul [/quote] My bad, its E6000 Resized_20190308_0850...

I cheated just a little, i put the engine from the "mint" car in while i am waitn on that crankshaft, hopefully have it tommorrow. (No i am not gonna start this engine) I also borrowed the front body mount while i fabricate one for this car. I really want to to make a bumper mount glow ign...

If it does go thru (which it probably will if u have no compression) and u cant find a new piston and sleeve (i found a nib piston/sleeve for my cz-2 in my nitro brute. Ut got lucky) you can always send your piston/sleeve to RayARacing and he can repinch it for about $20. That will get your compress...

Little bummed, u can see yellow behind the "313" . The white stripes are painted. Everything is on the inside of the body. Totally smooth outside. I can always buy another sheet and put new "313" over those on the outside but that does defeat the point :( Resized_20190310_133818_...

Thanks for the nice comments on the body, dont feel as bad now......Huge update, just got done workn on both Assaults, serious change to the "basket case" sent driveability thru the roof. It comes with a 12t clutch bell, i didnt gps it, but it is geared pretty low, not real fast. Ran anoth...

Hit up "they took my thumb", thats his username. dudes an encyclopedia on the TQ10, tell him i sent you. He might even have a chassis, but good luck getn it from him. His memories with that car are more ceremonial than physical. Its an oval chassis for the TQ10. Pic of it in his avatar. Go...

You have rebound in the shocks. Pretty normal on kyosho golds and bladder shocks. There is fine line between rebound/air in the shock. It can be done tho. Just takes patience.

Nailed it! F

Changed out these wore our front end components, worn parts had the camber all screwed up, plus they were ugly Thanks to rerelease cars these old parts can be bought

That chain is just tooooo SWEET!!!

Pretty quiet around here.....ran the basket case the last two Sundays for about 45min each time, perfwct reiability but wheelies would scuff my starter cone, making me miserable, so i fabbed up this basic wheelie bar out if .055 wire and two aluminum sleeves for rollers. It still allows the front to...
