Looks great and I agree with your comments.
The 40th is very well made; parts are clean, precise and beautifully finished.
I was reluctant to order one at first but now I'm happy I did.
Mine is #2045.

This “Spaz Stix” chrome I used for a bumper is pretty reflective even on the painted side. The label is lost and gone but looking at the bottom of the cans I’m 99% sure it’s a Spaz Stix product. The movie car wheels are a dull aluminum metal color, and then the AE asc6192 chrome knockoffs are brigh...

Just like other paint types, PC paint will adhere to almost anything - plastic, wood, metal, etc. For example, I use PC paint for ABS plastic exterior trim parts when I need a perfect color match to the body shell. PC paint isn't glossy so I will apply clear over these parts so they will better matc...

I have some brush motors coming soon as well, starting with 12x1 and 17x1, they will be chrome can instead of the black though. Hopefully will have them available by the time the next big release happens. They will be $19.95 just like the good old days OH, OH, OH. I want, I want, I want! Could you ...

I guess I'll kick this new forum into gear. So I pre-ordered my re-release RC10T Classic direct from Team Associated. While I and many others are waiting on the late June shipment, I ordered some Fan RC hard-anodized Team shocks with black aluminum shock caps. I know those shocks came with the blac...

This seems like a good application for a roll pin. It could be pressed through the hole then cut with an abrasive wheel slightly proud of the ring mounting face. No threading necessary and the pin's cylindrical shape would provide a good fit to drive the notch in the ring. Anyway, Jim was a master a...

The front tires are original 10T #7870's and they have a heavy spot. I've spun them on the wheel 180 degrees and results are the same so it's the tire. Was it common bitd to balance them? Not sure how common it was but a friend of mine balanced a set of tires of mine and it was night and day differ...

All of the steering parts are cracked in some place. One set is original, the other looks like an early repro, the texture is rough. I've always wondered if the non-threaded portion of the ball ends ( just under the hex ) tends to add additional stress to the holes that tend to crack. At least I do...

If it doesn't include a paper manual, FORGET IT! I'm OUT.

How about a qr code?

Maybe.

Did y'all notice the kit includes two sets of arms?
A spare set for a future build.

I bought a 48dp 81T spur to go with this, but seem to have lost it, it's just gone now - but would they have used 48dp in 1985? Thanks! I believe early 6-gears came with 32dp spurs. https://media3.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExamF3NnYyZTF0eXhxdzd0OWFkOXNoODc5dnpuOWE0d2hleGh2b3NneCZlcD12MV9pbnR...

ONE DOLLAR

What the....
Do they think we're made of money???

Well, I'm not paying it

You're welcome.

Thank you!
