Posting the first of my collection: An A & L based SCollins Scorcher sand rail!!! The nose plate was shortened, not the chassis plate, so don't freak out. The bumper has been replaced with a realistic basher bumper I made out of brass. Body is mounted with working tail lights.. A quick trip to the chromer and it will be finished. Front tires will be replaced with a sand blade from Pro-Line.

Nice looking build. That's one heck of a wheelie bar setup.

Holy mackerel, I guess you're expecting a lot of torque from your motor, huh? Glad to see the spirit of customisation is still alive.

Nice looking set-up by the way and welcome to the board.

WOW, thats cool mate. i love all the different spins on the A&L chassis, top stuff.

Fantastic paint and chassis work! There was an ebay auction last week where someone had the same idea but couldn't pull it off. They actually intended to use a scorcher front end. I like the execution on your version more.

any body on pics?

Awesome! I never get tired of seeing these RC10-Scorchers. I love that trailing arm set up.

Some body-on and detail pics (w/o battery so the car is up a bit). The Wheelbase is 9 3/4". Bumper and wheelie bar will be chromed.

really nice !!! lovin the front bumper, what are you using for motor and esc?

13 Double motor and a Tempest Max ESC with working taillights on the body. It's actually a prop for an independent film I'm working on. Other props will be a pair of custom Tamiya HumVees and a Fast Attack Vehicle.

COOL

Woow, great project, your Scorcher-10 is superb!!

And much scaler than mine

Bump, I didn’t realize that Bob had pics of the build here. The movie is out now, and the car looks terrific in it!
