Thanks. The Andy's Jaguar for the Agitator is in real nice shape but the one for the 10L isn't perfect. The unpainted body is an Associated Nissan GTP with a good amount of shelf wear scratches but no cracks; the blue/white one looks un-run but has an amateurish paint job; the blue/purple is the most used with a good size split in the hood.
My major want in the lot was the Sees wheels on the 10L and they're in excellent shape so I'm very happy. They'll be going on my sprint car.
Hmm, they offer smaller sizes that might work for that. They could probably be carefully tapped if the wall thickness allows. The tubes I got are the exact same size as the original SRB axle tubes. I was either going to use a stock center axle (threaded ends) or maybe no tube at all. But maybe I could find a correct size center tube to try to tap! I'll keep you posted on that.

If they are component grade construction and the correct resin was used the should be tap-able. A buddy of mine used to use them as captured hinge pins in dirt oval cars.
If they are Chinese, they probably won't tap well, most of the CF parts from there are basically ornamental only
I got a couple of 235mm 1/10th bodies today. One is a Camaro and the other, a Parma pug 306 rally (I had one of these on a Bosscat bitd ) I can see a rally car build in my future

Nice I'm still looking for a suitable 235mm for my mate's Ex-Dez Chand Predator wide-track touring car - a Pug 405 would be ideal but I think that was a Frewer shell.
There was a time when the 190mm Parma touring shells where the ones to have - combining relatively realistic looks with decent handling characteristics, the modern-day shells from HPI & Protoform etc are much more generic aero blobs with some lights & grill to distinguish one from another! I'm currently painting up a Parma ClodBuster shell - I forgot how nicely moulded they were, & made from some sturdy Lexan!

Ouch! Surely nobody will buy it at that price.... I think my uncle still has an unpainted Parma flatnose 911 shell which he was going to fit onto his Thundershot
I've been digging, doing some research, tapping into the past. On my journey I've Found some very interesting early posts by a lot of currant members here in the archives. Very interesting stuff! I encourage newer members to do the same, as the old...

Nope. I'm not clicking on any links in this thread because I know one of them is going to be Farmer's pic. :P
None of them were about that picture.
But now one of them refers to it.
But seeing how often it is mentioned in this thread, it sure...
This seems to be a hugely popular thread on another forum out there, so let's see how it do here?!?
Simple, what did you do RC wise today? Pics or it didn't happen! Painted a body, rewired a ESC, mounted some wheels, finished a 3-year project...

Watching bad CSI shows while finishing off stickers and wings…I have some more research to do on the shape of the wing tabs, I didn’t quite get them and the wing needs to be farther forward but at least now I have a new starting point.
Thanks to Hoopty for the design, and Mrlexan for the production. They look great. And Thanks again Jay for the body and wing to put them on, can't wait to get 'em dirty. :D

The seller even included a free gift of 4 bearings. Wow, can't wait for my tires to show up too (same as what's in the pic here).
Got a bunch of stuff now, including the RC Channel rear metal kit, SRB alloy chassis and nose. Just need the RC4wd...

since there is no rc4wd local distributor here in our place, they didnt ship here without approval, wasted a lot of good stuff from them (we need to order in a long process)
I built this today, its just a start, it was hard to get a picture of the whole track, unless I stood really far away... anyways more to come soon. its gonna be a lot of fun and was not too hard to do for just a few hours work! i made the rails out...

any suggestions???
thanks

Big jumps and take some pictures of cars in action :D Looks amazing, I'd love a garden!
I thought I would start a thread having to do with cool/offbeat music. So your feeling a bit low, your dog has a bad case of fleas, it's raining outside, you can't run that awesome RC10 build because your missing 1 stupid part, nothing cool arrived...

I just picked up a few sort of new ones from work, Pink Floyd and AC/DC. The latest releases from both of them on CD.
