Looks like the project box has grown quite a bit from the last time you posted it, are they reproducing on their own?

hard to say for sure.
most of it is crap...
when we were building the giveaway car i just yanked a tranny from one of the rigs (the one in the pic with the yellow battery strap) and sent it to him for the gears.
...it ended up being all thorp 64p.

Well if you have a couple of straight nose braces in that "crap" you have there that you want to sell let me know that would complete my build.

Probably busy out collecting cans or doing yardwork for grandma.
Or trying to find those two cents.

I find it hard to believe anyone could think finding an RC10 could be hard work. It would have to be the most avaiable vintage 2WD out there. Yes shelfers are hard to find but like others have said 'finding runners are easy'. Thank god for ebay, even building a new car can be done from nip spares always around. Sheesh....you should try finding a descent Cougar or CAT now days. There difinately not as easy to snag.
