My first non AE vintage car

[JK Racing]

Definitely not my first Losi, that was in 87, the day they released the JRX2, bought it directly from Ranch...if I only knew then....

anyways, seen this car, talked with the owner and it became mine...and much to my surprise, and extra "parts" car was included in the deal.

The Vintage RC gods have smiled upon me this day...

The body...trimmed up, not even wing holes made yet, a little touch up with the reamer & dremel sanding drum and DONE



The car...Junior 2, pretty complete, and only a couple marks on the curvature of the kick up





And the gravy....a Pro (SE?) car also



Hydradrive for the LRM, technicraft tie rods (I think), and those great front drop C hubs and steering knuckles>




Now, I am also on the search for a body, this one will never see a track (OMG, did I just say that?). I am seriously contemplating putting the Junior 2 on a shelf in my office at work. I really like the overall look of the car.

Be careful...we're not exactly in losi country here

When I first started racing, I was a die hard losi guy until they released the pro SE. I didn't like any of the current associated cars (still using the tub chassis), so I started building my own hybrids.

Today, I'm begining to appreciate the rc10s more and more....

The reason I have my Losi is I couldnt beat it with my RC10 so I sold it and bought the Losi I kept losing to!! their both great cars. the RC10 seams easer to restore their seams to be a lot better parts supply and a lot more of them on E-Bay for the RC10 than the Losi. I am restoring my JRX Pro and LXT and maybe my JRXT but for what I have spent on each I could have just bought a new RC10 RTR Truck the new one.
