:lol: :lol: As do I, I used 3/4" roofing nails and some kind of glue. (They could have been bigger)

Can't remember what kind of glue, could have been silicone for all I know. What ever Dad had in the garage that I could scrounge up.

I can remember using thumb tacks, then spreading silicone ( over the heads, on the inside of the tire) on my Hornet, to see if it would work on ice, in the winter, kind of worked, but very risky! to be 12 again :roll:

I figured out what the PO had rigged up to hold down the servo of the early RC10 I got the other day... it's a "Regal Pale Beer" bottle opener with the end hacked off. :lol:

Was hoping to receive the DEX210 that I ordered but no luck. Have that and another box with tires, motor, and a few parts. Tomorrow is Friday here, I might cry if it doesnt show up. Either that or firebomb something, havent decided yet lol.

How many of you have heard of this. I've never been a big touring car fan but I remember wanting one of these just from the way it looked. Wasn't around long.......not exactly vintage but it will be someday
