Yes I do like the martini scheme

So I picked up this RC10 Graphite that was modified for carpet racing and here is the front end. Anyone know who made aluminum front "short" A-arms?

Sorry for the bad picture it was more for reference when I go to put it all back together.

Hot Trick made the arms

Looks like hot trick to me...

Thanks! This site is amazing. I don't remember a lot of the Hot Tricks parts...maybe because it was out of my price range BITD

They made the shock tower too. I believe it was designed so that you could use it as a front or a rear tower.

Looks a little shorter but my Tamiya Sand Rover had one of these at the back, as a rear guard and pick-up handle. It poked through the fibreglass "spring" and was secured by two screws.

uh, that maybe why it looked familiar. I had 1 of those back in the day as well. Thank you

Can anyone give me a Brand/Model for this please? it has an OS 12 in it and is 2wd

Andy,

I'm going to guess it's a GV or Model Engines... GV were known to use OS engines back in the day, and I have a truck very similar - see link here: http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=115738&sid=154

Would like to know what it is myself, actually.... may have to get the old D&Ts out, do it properly...

Looks like a Duratrax Maximum ST....which could very well be based on that GV you speak of

X2...the OS dropped in very nicely and those things actually handled the oval quite well with a decent set of tires for what they were
