What up RC10 talk. Noob here. Just got back into these, it’s probably been 30 years since any of these have run. I figured I’d share them with you and query whether or not I should be running these as some parts have been breaking and now I’m tasked with sourcing new parts on my question is let us put these in order of which ones not to run because they’re too hard to find parts for?
Ok. I have been a Tamiya collector for a long time. I got my first car, the Grasshopper 2, in 87.
Life and a marriage implosion got in the way a few times but I have always come back.
Here are some pics I took.

Just found this nice collectible: it's a NIB Tamiya RC-Buggy Collection 1/6 scale, made by SAN-S some time ago. It's a set of five extremely detailed models in three versions of each, packed in a display box for model shops. 3 Avantes, 3 Buggy...
Here are a couple of pics of my vintage motor collection. All of these motors were raced at one point in time. My favorites of all have the to be the Slot Machine 2 and the Parodox. They changed stock racing in there own right. First was the laydown...

Well you have really good collection I like that. I think all the old stuff is more durable instead of the new motors . Because I mostly see the burnt problem in motors. How many years you are collecting these motors?
Well, I have been buying online and building a vintage Kyosho rc collection and I finally have most of the ones I wanted, I am still waiting on a turbo scorpion and a rc10talk member is painting and decaling one for me. I grew up in the 80's and...
