The Official "What is it?" Thread

[Diggley]

Alright RC aficionados, here is a part I have not been able to find what it fits.
JG shock adapters, part #t-06 for part #t-01
I'm thinking Tamiya?
Have a few JG aluminum srb parts, and they start with the same prefix.
Have always liked the JG stuff, built my Blackfoot with his hop up parts bitd.
Thanks
Mike

The brackets look like they're off a Tamiya Wild One to me...but I'm not 100% certain.

Can someone ID these 1/12 scale tires?

Foam-

[AndrewSi]

lol okay, fine. The brand of the rim/tire combos.

[Charlie don't surf]

Most of them are TRC 8 spokes (I think), the rear heavy webbed rims are 12E/I rears- and there are a set of 12L 5 spokes fronts

I have an unknown chassis. RC10Resto didn't know, lol, so I came here. It has extra holes where the tranny mounts and what look like yellow dotted lines on the chassis?

scr8p asked me about this, happy to provide what i know, which wasnt much until this january when a member named Rubbaneck pm'd me about a now deleted post. lucky he saw the post in time! its nice to have a little info!

heres my original post after i got the first one off ebay:

Subject: cool little rc10 i just sniped
i emailed the seller, asking him who made the chassis, here's his reply,

"It was a colorado based company that made them during the early 90's. The company was Brian Geesy & Co. He sold several chassis at National events and many locally. It is one of a kind. Thanks for your purchase and enjoy!"

does that name ring a bell with any of you guys?

heres Rubbanecks pm after he saw my post:

I was just lurking and found this post. I'm a longtime offroader and used to run for Brian Gisi that made that chassis. He also had a Losi version for the XX line.

I'll get some more pics of mine and post them up soon.

i dunno if he ever posted pics or is even active on the board. i'm a born again newbie here.

i got 2 of them btw, here they are. its a double decker but it shouldnt be hard at all to replicate.




biggest res i got if you want details.

...ebay was awesome bitd.

I'm still lurking . I found my old cars and will post them soon. Been real busy, 1st time Father a month ago

I'll post up my RC-10 RPM-arm version and just the Losi XX chassis I used to run. This site rules, too many great memories!

These are magnetic... some sort of mount, but what?

Happened to see an item on Stormer Hobbies and it got me thinking... could these be old magnetic body hole markers?
They could be mounts instead of body clips but that big black magnet on the outside of your lexan would look lousy.
They are still staring back at me from the bin on my desk!

[slapshot1979]

I know this is a parma hemi but the body seems to be eluding me on my searches. Anyone remember the name or the manufactur if it wasnt parma.

FYI its a perfect fit for the chassis not a hack job.

[scr8p]

the whole car is parma. it was a kit, came like that.

[bearrickster]

These came in a box of bits, and i'm not sure what they are for. The top 2 are identical, just photographed showing both sides. Some kind of wheels adapters maybe? The one at the bottom i have no idea about,



Paul.

The top 2 are spur adapters for sure. I have some what are looking identical and they are made by RW. I think they should be for a Kyosho car maybe a Lazer but you need using RW spurs from my knowledge.

Let's see if I can stump yous again. Picked up a nice shocks lot last week and need help identifying a couple of them.

I know I've seen the two gold before (the second one just recently) but can't remember where. The silver one kind of looks like a Kyosho Scorpion shock but the shock cartridge is different. The red plastic one is likely from some cheapo Radio Shack or Nikko car...the lot had some RS Golden Arrow parts included.

[GoMachV]

Is the first one a You-G shock? I have seen it before....somewhere! Same with #3...familiar but from where!
