My DS

Post by TAP »

I picked this up used at the local ( Granite Leisure Time Oakland, Me.) shop for the sum of $45.00 RTR!!! It was a mess to say the least... but with a teardown and cleaning it looks pretty darn good now!! I am missing the BBS inserts for the rears,

here's a shot of the chassis, I put a Losi brushed ESC in it so I can run Lipos without over discharging them.

Looks good. For the price it looks GREAT actually. Those bbs inserts show up on ebay often and once you get b/s/t access you can post a wanted thread in there for them. I've always like the rc10ds and would love to see an MIP 4wd setup in one of these.

Nice looking machine right there. Love the Mustang body with the BBS rims. Great score!

ebay will be your best bet for another mustang ds body. Mrlexan has repops but I'm not up to date with everything he has. Check in the 'business forum' under mrlexan's threads and he'll have a listing of what he has.
