I'd like to see that rear tires better. They look odd in that picture. Send me the car, I can inspect them better that way.

Got some work to do

Got my RC10 Classic from clinehobbies yesterday. Going to stay sealed up for the time being... until eBay tells me their worth a million dollars.

Not bad for £3.......

Been buying a few things lately



And here is what I was most excited about! The lightning was my first car, I say that my first car was a Tamiya Bigwig but my first car that used 7.2v NiCds was the Lightning for Christmas in 1985. I drove the wheels off that car and then scrapped it when I got my Bigwig. I've found 2 other parts cars but never figured I would find one NIB. This one is almost complete only missing tires, battery and charger...I'll take that!

I have a lot of parts for your monogram runners...shoot me an address!

Got a nice care package from the anno gods today, chassis for my team car, 10t, t2, b1.5, and a spare standard tub. Along with plenty of other bits... unscratched shock caps galore!!

(I couldn't help but start assembling the 10t )

Damn congrats on the Lightning! It was my first as well and I was looking for one. Great score.
