I decided to dig out my old RC-10 to clonk around the yard and such alongside my son, who got a duratrax buggy for the holidays. I think the last time i ran it was 1991, it was torn down and stored since then. I had never contemplated how horrible my modification skills were as a teenager until i started to put it back together. a trip to the hardware store for a couple (wrong) screws and it's back on the road. Took advantage of an empty bay @ work for some indoor wintertime running and, despite slick off road tires all around , we both had fun sliding around and doing some mild jumping. broken ball end put an end to it all !
so i decided to buy some parts, or a parts car, on ebay to compliment what was salvageable from mine. fortunately all the electronics function well. I ended up with a really decent car for a lot less than i would have expected to pay, so decided to complete it and find different parts to fix up mine. i see a familiar vicious cycle starting. the last time it occurred was with vintage honda motorcycles, but that's a whole 'nother story. onto some pictures ! will start with the OG, then the new project, then the current status on each. all comments and humor welcome !
