Early TQ10 build (Chassis for now)

Post by **Charlie don't surf** » Tue Mar 12, 2013 10:33 pm

Someone......tipped me off about an auction that had in the last pic what appeared to be an un-used early TQ10 chassis....low and behold, Jason was on the money. Spotless

utterly amazing since I had never seen a new one until Eddie posted his awesome build.

Did you just get the chassis or did you get more of the car?

That chassis looks mint. I noticed a lovely TQ10 on Ebay right now by the way. Although I suspect your chassis is even tidier. The one I saw has a tiny feint scratch on it.

long story short, someone bought a new tq10 kit, along with a new bbt vindicator chassis. it was never built as a buggy, which is the reason for the mint chassis. the sprinter doesn't seem to be run much at all either. take note of the unmolested black motor plate.

All the plastics on the Sprint are pristine under the dirt/mold (chassis was the same way) so the sprint will get torn down and the TQ will be built essentially from there, adding 10-15 new parts to complete

Sprinter would look good in all alloy parts

anybody else experiencing dizziness - guess I know now why I would rather turn both ways

Thought I'd start tearing down the Sprint car for the TQ parts.

Thing of beauty...a crazy rare TQ10 motor plate

of course, its easy enough to just use a stealth plate- but since this was here...all the better

the shocks were pristine (except the two front caps) so that saves some trouble
