Won these two chargers at an online auction for $10.
When I started back in the day I had the same as the right one in the picture.
Goes straight into the collection.

Got some very cool, must have items from teshreve! The Tekin chassis setup is so weird! (wait, there's a propeller car here and I'm calling the Tekin weird?) The compartment areas for specific electronics, the rear sliding mount for the upper suspension links, the mid motor layout, the 'home made' look of the chassis design.

I was on the fence on getting the prop car. I already have my own prop car plans, but looking through the history of teshreve's builds I see that he has done a lot of what I want to do, so how could I not want someone of his collection? I'm sure I can learn a few tricks from it too.

You just beat me to that tekin car

And saved me from spousal abuse by buying that graphite car...

More items for the RC10 and 10T. I've seen the JConcepts steering set may have some slop in the fitment, but the car will be a shelfer and it's only to match a bling factor. Can't be any worse than the stock steering setup.

I risked spousal abuse but it was worth it

I was too excited last night to take pics of the packages but I got a care package from @teshreve . A pair of mystery CVDs, a complete 2.19:1 XX transmission, and a pair of wing tubes.

Lets just say I've been wanting to do this since my first ProSE in the 90s. After some transplanting the XX guts into their new home.

I'm hoping this works as a gearbox bearing mount fixer...

big day for me. I've been looking for NOS XL2P for several years. For many years now I've been working on a copy of my exact RC10L setup from the late 80's using mostly new parts. This was the last piece to the puzzle.

I watched for a decent deal on one for a while. Ended up getting two within a fairly short span.

But I wanted 27 mhz so that I could mix and match receivers.

Best $20 I've spent. '91 NIX runner I won on a waffle over at Ocl School RC. Came with loads of extra parts and even a signed wheel dot from Masami Hirosaka

Thank to teshreve for the goodies.

Sweet! Congrats on the win!

I've had my cheap Amazon LiPo batteries losing mah life and it's made me think about how crappy a battery fire would be. I'm not sure the battery bags are good enough so I went with one of these. Holy LiPo lunchbox Bat Man!

I ordered two of these when they were released. One still NIB, what do you think of it? It sure does give peace of mind in storing lipo batteries.
