My "Left Over Parts" Buggy

[Basher67]

Found these in one of my parts drawers hiding under some packages of CRP parts. I think I'll add these to this buggy. Parts like this don't add to the visual "wow factor" but it will make me smile a little more when I look at the car because I will know they're in there.

It's amazing how some of these parts cost. I've paid big bucks for a set of titanium hinge pins which no one will ever see.

Great job on your "spare parts car". Careful you don't end up making it too nice to run.

Like most of us who go a bit overboard in adding some "blind bling" (just coined this one... not bad eh?) on his car, he won't want to run it anymore...

very very nice build, full of specials, love it!

"blind bling"? I like that. You guys know the situation well. When I first started throwing parts on this chassis, the idea was either a runner or to just sell it to fund other projects. The arms, bulk head etc. came off another one of my RC10's that received Hot Trick, Andy's and black plastic parts. When I put the wheels on it, I was thinking they would look nice there until I got around to putting them on another car. Then I painted the body and started digging out tecnacraft parts while doing some organizing in my RC10 parts and the rest is history. Yeah, the thought of running it now is starting to make me cringe a little. I would at least take the wing off before running it.

Nicely done!

I like the paint work!
