I had a similar experience with RPM parts that were left soaking for a while, except mine turned green. They were in laundry detergent and some bleach and they turned sort of a glow-in-the-dark green. I thought they were ruined, but I built the car anyway. Eventually, they lost most of the green tint and came out looking pretty good.

I bleached a set of team car rear hubs once, and they turned bright yellow! and after about 2 months of sitting they came back--the gear cover is only a touch darker than the new parts and
it should lighten up after a month or so. And the servo mounts are AE 7336's from an early B2-and
I have one more set left for another build :wink:


I did not know the early B2 came with white servo mounts, I thought only the servo arms were white. This is great info!

probably because it says RPM on it. :wink:

not to mention, a rc10b4 buggy has a 2.60 trans. so, it's not like a 2.65 in a buggy is way off base.

Really nice build Reg. Glad the RPM Parts cleaned up nice! Did you end up using the small spring isolators? I didn't know if those were an RPM deal or not, I've never seen that style before, but they were on the shocks so I sent them.

59burst hooked me up with a Yoke kit with the same isolators and lower spring retainers that were similar to the RPM kit (that I can't seem to find) so I didn't use them, but they are correct for the
quick clips to have that--

Nice build! Where did you get the idea for the slimmer chassis? Was there a manufacturer who made these?

When did they make the worlds chassis? Was it after the worlds car came out?
