RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Here's a pic of a "blue basher" project and a 6-gear Andys RC-10T I was putting together:


Here is a "brand new" Futaba Magnum JR. and some various ESC's and receivers:


Here are some pics of a bunch of parts upon parts I have, all for the RC-10:







And a batch of random tires:


Sometime I'll lay everything out in groups to show all the neat goodies I actually have in there!

Nice little attic collection you got!

Yeah, I havent done anything with them for the last 10 years! Life has a way of getting in the way. But, I'm getting the bug again!!!

Nice wooden box too, lol. Those batteries tend to be collectible as well to vintage guys.

The vintage matched battery packs are collectible too? Hopefully they'll still hold a charge for me...

I also forgot to mention my case of motors and my Trinity motor lathe. I'll dig those out for picture time later.

I call dibs on one of your battery packs

Welcome! Be prepared to spend an unhealthy amount of time here reliving your youth and also finding out that your wallet gets surprisingly lighter the longer you spend here

The battery packs are worth something even if they wont hold a charge anymore? Just for show or something?

Nope. Nothing. Chris was just kidding. I call second dibs!!!
It's not that they're worth something, some people, like myself, are looking for some to complete a build for the shelf. Not that they are "worth something" monetary.

I see. Like a period correct piece of a model for show. They are "worth something" if someone has a use for them, worth saving more then throwing them in the garbage, even if they are only "props" if they dont hold a charge.

The only team car I have left.

I'm glad to see someone else ran long shocks up front also...Welcome.

Welcome, I have a feeling you are going to contribute a lot to the site. Looks like you are another great knowledge house of the vintage RC community.

I did run long shocks up front "back in the day" but I'm going to restore the front end to its standard shock configuration when I finely get around to doing a complete restoration.
