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

Been at this one for a while now and finally about to wrap it up. All parts are scaled 1/2 from the 12e making it a 1/24 car. Fits slot bodies but I'm struggling to find a nice early 80s stock car for it. I made a few concessions along the way but very minimal. For example the kingpins are press fit...

For scale, this is a 1/12 T160 body And here is the resistor next to a stealth trans case

Shouldn't your little hot rod be parked under the end of that thing?!?!?!

How long did you chase it around trying to find the pot of gold at the end?

Even without the rainbow, I love rural America (and probably rural everywhere else, too).

Now stop taking pictures and get that mirror fixed.

Decal sheets from MCI.

Maybe the frosted-look is from leaving the outer masking on still?

Thanks again to romulus22 , he PM'd me a site that has the #7185 Truck Spoiler, ordered it. Got all of the decals cut and put on. https://i.imgur.com/bGuMJOi.jpg https://i.imgur.com/3ARrPcX.jpg https://i.imgur.com/0YH7e88.jpg When the spoiler gets here, the body will be completed. #2 still needs Rx ...

Instead of drilling holes for the spoiler you could use a few small pieces of servo tape.

This will be my first time building a new in box rc10 in about 30 years. I am building this up with a graphite chassis I picked up and didn't have a specific build for. IMG_3473.jpeg The front end went together well. You can see some small voids in the front A-Arms. The pieces are opaque, not clear....

Hello all! I'm a new member here on this forum, and I'd like to show off 1991 RC10 Team car, all original, built by my father, an older member on here by the username of CharlieDon'tSurf. He build this car for the upcoming 2nd annual Vintage World Classic at Thunder Alley RC. Hopefully I'll see some...

Cleaned up the work bench a little...and found one of those Novak esc dual pot covers....now back where it should be!
