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

So I came upon a great deal on a RC10GT, which in was planning on cleaning, getting running, and selling. After long and deliberate consideration (about 15 minutes after I got home with it), I decided to keep it. Seeing as how there's really nowhere around me to run a nitro car, I knew that I'd have...

First thing I did was strip the car down to a molecular level. After a close inspection, I could tell this thing was ridden hard and put away wet. It had taken some hard hits in its life. Overall, it was solid and complete, though, and that was most important to me. After getting the chassis strippe...

As promised, here's some pics. I'd love any advice or help identifying what I've got.
I know it's got RPM arms front and rear, and a host of other RPM stuff as well. Also an old NiCad charger and a vintage KO transmitter.

Yeah, I've got the manual. I don't know if I need to change it. It was assembled when I got it, so I'm just going to slap it back together. I was curious if anybody knew what that top shaft was, and if I possibly needed different spacers to shim it inside the case or whatnot. There was 2 diff gears,...

Thanks for the replies. Now I have the task of convincing myself to not pick up the B4 and get a chassis for it, as well as build the B3 chassis. Because I REALLY need 2 more cars.

Got a lot of laughs from this thread. Thought I'd revive it. Not Craigslist, but still funny. Guy is asking $500 for a brushed 2wd Slash. Against my better judgement, I let him know that his truck is $269 new from Traxxas. He then claimed to get $900 for his Slash, and blocked me. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Brian, 42 years old from Northern California. Always wanted to get into RC when I was young, could never seem to afford it then. Now I can, and am having a blast. I'm a mechanic/fabricator, so doing it at scale is fun for me. My collection includes a Kyosho Dirt Road 10, RC10T, RC10GTE, B3, Stampede...

I always wanted one, but by the time I could afford one, I couldn't. Picked this up in a box of RC stuff off Craigslist. There's a re release Tamiya Frog and an Axial Scorpion included, along with bags and boxes of parts to go through still. This is all the Associated stuff I could identify first ti...

This is my B3 that I recently picked up. Carbon Fiber composite chassis, front and rear arms, carbon fiber shock towers. The chassis is brand new, and I want to keep it that way, so I used some carbon fiber vinyl as a protector. Still haven't decided on a body yet. I'm not a huge fan of the big wind...

I got a servo saver set for my B3. Super exciting, I know.

Went through the same thing with my wife the first time I ordered through Banggood.

I wish I could afford hardware store bleach.

Where in Norcal? I'm in Santa Rosa...

Got some time to finish up the cage and fuel cell mounts on the Class 11 I'm building.
