2025 Tamiya Vintage World Classic. This buggy is still going strong! Car was money. Not the results he wanted,.mostly out of his control. Car has always been good

I figured a click bait Youtube style thread title wouldn't suck ... buuuut I'm sure i figured wrong. :mrgreen: While searching for some JRXT parts in the basement, I was reminded that I had a Ebay score JRX2 abandoned on a dark shelf. After blowing off the cobwebs, the minty-ness was revealed, as we...

1/2 ball bearing steering... 20250215_152519.jpg Rusty shock shaft hinge pin.... nice 20250215_171023.jpg 20250215_171056.jpg All torn apart. 20250215_172441.jpg Motor plate looks like it never had a motor installed. Maybe someone was thinking about JRX Pro type inboard rear ball studs, but the bulk...

The gearbox only had the outdrive gears inside. With all the mismatched parts, I'm guessing the Ebay seller threw things together to make it appear complete in the listing. Anyway - time to assemble, starting with a diff pulled from my stash. 20250216_164352.jpg Installed an early top shaft. 2025021...

Couple of pics from this weekends work on the SP10. Cracked and delaminated corner someone "fixed" with some soft unhardened epoxy. Actually felt more like shoegoo. 20250124_195343_l.jpg 20250124_195357_l.jpg Cleaned the area and used CA with filed down carbon dust as filler. Clamped hard ...

I'm gonna buy one, probably 2. But am I the only one that thinks it's a bit... Ironic?

Motor options. I did not have Losi motors back in the day. Mostly, I had Trinity Monster Horsepower or B&R, as that is what the local hobby shops had in stock. 20250215_105307.jpg 20250215_105903.jpg This is what I had in there BITD. Need a pinion and a few misc screws to call it done (for now)....

Well, I did it again. This time a $60 Losi JRX Pro from offerup. It came with a ton of spares and tools. Even a charger and transmitter. It also seemed to be a pretty competitive car BITD. Theres 11 plaques with podium wins glued inside the case. More pics later maybe. 20250217_165916.jpg Screenshot...

There seems to be a lot of SE builds lately, and here comes another. I was inspired by RogueIV's modern SE car. I decided that I wanted to build a modern SE myself. It will sport both vintage and modern upgrades and modern electronics. I'm starting with a pristine chassis. Very minimal shelf wear. T...

Hello,
Next activity will be on a Jrxs.

Let's kick things up a notch. This painted body is a recent ebay find. No idea who the artist is.

I got the transmission built. I used a 64 pitch gear set. I'm a big fan of the 64 pitch gears. I couldn't help myself from adding the aluminum hydra drive screws. They really bring back the early 90's neon feel.

Parts day Moto Obscura remake B4.2/SC10 axles and B4.2 front hex make a new 12mm XX CR front end that takes all the B7 wheels I already have!

Wow... Those are some nice cells. I figured they were the cheap nicad we see on Amazon. I've built a couple packs from them, they work and can't beat the price but not much for run time Nooo....no. These are Panasonic (Japan) cells. They bought Sanyo's NiCd business years ago...you can still find s...
