90's RPM Truck conversion.

Post by USA-1 »

Here it is you can stop looking in my gallery. 8) I picked up an RC10T on Ebay to finish it, it had a lot of hopped up parts, Tecnacraft Tie rods, Titanium hinges and Robinson Titanium ball studs, HPI Universals, MIP Steering, Battery, ESC, Novak NER2, shocks all looked good shape, hardly any wear on all the parts.

Can't be 90's without a lot decals! :mrgreen:
Image
Oh well it has the Oval Tranny 1.96.
Image
I guess you can guess what happen to the chassis. :lol: Drilled out the 2 holes perfectly. Has shrink tubing to protect finish.
Image
Finding the right servo I had to take it from one of my choppers. Custom servo mounts.
Image
No dreaded extra servo hole here.
Image
I found some Titanium dog bones in my parts pile decided to go with those instead of the HPI Universals.
