Sorry for all the pic posts guys. But it's fun to show the community what I have since my wife has no interest in any of this nonsense! :wink: It was a nice November day, so I broke out my DSLR and took a few snaps. Thanks.

This is how the Jrx2 looked when I got it...

After a little elbow grease it cleaned up ok, it was actually in great shape. I also threw the Pure Tech battery strap in the washing machine. Came out like new. Just need to snag a repro from mrlexan.

Solid/blank motor plate. :mrgreen:

A few of my box art'd LXT. Never ending search for some decals... Anyone have any leads on decals for an LXT?

Your wive do not understand Your great hobby? :wink: :lol: You are probably not the only member here with same "problem".
Greate work with Your Jrx2, it is hard to beleave that cars in pic 1 and 2 are the same. But then Your JrxPro :shock: . What a paint job. If not the best but very very good box art paint job there.

Lol, true Jirka. My wife has no idea what a rad hobby she is missing out on. :wink:

Thanks for the compliments on my Pro. I tried to follow the box art as close as possible. It's always been one of my favorite paint schemes. I plan on doing maybe a box art paint job on the Jrx2.

Haha. Thanks urpaldan.

I'm not sure on the RPM cover. I've never owned a XX, so I couldn't tell you if the motor plate was the same. I ran the Hyrda Drive on both my older Losi's which it obviously fit over. Sorry, maybe someone else could chime in on this info?

VERY nice, especially the Pro. Good work, amazing to see the JRX2 being transformed into a beauty!

Love the shot of the LXT with the mountains in the background, you could make more of that without the houses etc in the shot, would be a great 'arty' shot :-)

Thanks Jammin! Appreciate it. I love my Pro, definitely one of favorites in my collection.

Lol. I do need to express my artsy side a bit more. I might have to do that. :D

Niice Losi's! Are you done collecting? Or are you going to still be on the hunt for other vintage losi's? I think like most of us on this forum, we are always upgrading our collection.. :D

Great thread. Thank you for showing your treasures. I have to do my best to do a good photo-documentation of my vintage collection restoration / clean-up. I also start with good intentions, but get into a groove and forget pictures. I'll have to look, I might have some stickers for the LXT. Since I currently don't plan on doing anything with the LXT roller I have, probably sell it. I'll let you know. Great photographs.
