Thought I was finished and seen I forgot a few screws on the noseplate. I had to add a noseplate, rear bulkhead, rear springs, and body mounts. The tires and body are from another buggy I got in the same lot. I took it out and the buggy runs pretty good. No speed demon with the stock motor but ran a long time. So another RC10 has been brought back to life. Now lets take it apart and sell it on ebay.
I have been wanting to do a rebuild thread but it always seems whenever I get an RC in the mail I just can't control myself and start tearing the thing apart 5 minutes after I open the package. So I thought I might start the thread before I even...

Just finished up rebuilding the second truck. Looks like the truck was only driven a half dozen times. I only replaced the front shock tower and added a battery strap. Everything else is original to what I recieved in the mail. All the nylon is nice...
I have an early MIP transmission that I'm going to clean and re-grease. I was thinking of taking pics and making a thread....partially to show the process but mainly to document an early piece for reference purposes. Would that be of use or is it...

Don't sweat it...I don't think I have a MIP anything...
I have been lurking for some time and decided to say hi. I have been into RC since the late 80's, at that time my grandfather gave me an old Blackfoot that started it all. Once I started getting RC Car Action mags...

Here she is. My first real RC. Also the only one I bought new at a hobby shop, that also was a tv/vcr repair shop. (since then I got them used from someone somewhere)
My dad and I built it together. Well I did wake up way early and worked on it for...

Do you know of any shocks that would be a direct replacement. I have an assault that I'm slowly rebuilding. The shock collars are brittle and broken, so I ordered some from Team CRP, turns out they are 8mm shock collars and the stock are 10mm . My...
I was sent over here from RCTech.net and had trouble getting my account going until now. I started a thread over there and this will basically be a duplicate of that thread I had started. Not much enthusiasm over there for the RC10,...

Picked up a big bunch of parts. Some needed to fix the broken other simply just to rebuilding things like the tranny and shocks. I broke my front A-arm a while ago and replaced it with a nylon one of a donor car and that didnt last long. I decided...
Where to Start? Okay in the mid 80's (1985 I believe) I bought a Kyosho Optima RC Car kit. Some history. My first RC car was a Tamiya Audi Quattro. It was a 2 wheel drive kit with an Audi body. I was always disappointed...

Odd that the Coors sticker is the Arizona state flag design.
Well not really when you consider the guy I got it from bought it as a kid when he lived in Arizona.
He now has a basically unused RC10 from the late 80's. Radio still in the box. Built...
I wanted to start a thread to document my XX CR Kinwald edition rebuild. I read that this is the forum with plenty of active vintage Losi peeps, so any advice/pointers and parts should I need anything would be...
