Parts on the right are ear-marked for my new-build car that i'm intending to build up like my old car BITD (albit with some choice parts that I would have brought given the budget back then)... The parts on the left seem to be developing themselves into some other build... runner/new build show car - i'm not sure... I just keep buying parts!
That's a nice collection of parts. I saw a chassis on ebay, 1 sold and 1 left and was in two minds, I think you beat me to it (few weeks ago)
I am not affiliated with oldrc.com, I'm just old when it comes to my RC history

That happened with me and my NIB Kinwald, I wasn't even looking it just so happened that my browser was on eBay when my mac returned from sleep, it refreshed the page automatically and there it sat in front of me, BIN, in the UK. Boom! it was mine. Talk about lucky!
Seeing all these Kinwalds around makes me wanna start it
I can imagine that there wasn't even a moments hesitation! I bet you couldn't hit the BIN quick enough...
Anyway, we ought to stop hi-jacking Dan's thread!

Yeah, he's no longer a losi guy. He races for X-Factory now. As for Competition Hobbies, that is where he races. I've never raced there, but I've picked up a few parts and stuff. They have a really nice indoor track (which is great here in Tucson)...
This truck belonged to a friend of mine. He is a very OCD avid racer. He does every little thing to get that extra little edge down to wet sanding brand new diff rings to a mirror finish. Anyways he moved away from my area (pa) in 2014 to Florida....

'sok, you can either embed Imgur pic with the image tool/icon or directly attach an image with attachments at bottom of drafting page if it's not too big datawise.
Happy lockdown building.
I got this car a few weeks ago for FREE! I know its a Bolink, I believe an eliminator sport. I know there's one or two Bolink buffs on here so feel free to clue me in. I think I'm just going to clean it up, put some decent tires on it, some bearings...

Normally the post and tube in the back has a spring in it but it looks like someone put a rc10l shock on it. And yes it is a eliminator sport and yes i would be interested i will send a pm.
So I have a friend at work that used to be into RC'ing way back in the day. He went through his old stuff and brought in a few bags of trinkets to give to me the other day. The crowned jewel of the loot was a pretty nice RC10T... he also gave me...

Where are find this Body , it's very nice, I have 2 RC10 T and I looking for 2 body.
A freind of mine gave me this truck today. I took him to the hobby shop years ago and he bought it and we put it together but he never put the electronics in it. I dont remember what year it was but I belive it was 96 or 97. He put it in the closet...

Thinking about a Lexan Brat body....

So the project took a turn in direction. The free Frog chassis had the ears shaved off of the body mounts so I could not mount a Brat body. I ended up mounting it on my re-re until I can find a cheap Frog chassis.
Found a box of old motors lastnight...
