I do hope Tamiya re-re the Sand Scorcher.....we could then all get one at a sensible price!

Thank You very much for Your kind words! Oh yes, a re-re would be wonderful!!!

Thank You very much!

Wow, that is one extremely nice looking TS!!! Love the paintjob and the surroundings seems to be perfect for that kind of fun! Wish I had the possibility to drive around in such places here in Hamburg Great pictures!!

AE also released a B3 conversion kit that mainly included towers and body i think. I can't remember all the details. The blue Anodized parts were a FACTORY TEAM option i believe for the B3. Nice find. BITD the B3 was my first buggy. MOmo Oh great, many thanks for the info!! :) I am sure this has be...

Thank You all so very much for Your help, I am very grateful! I will indeed try rebuild it, the "B2-way":) Thx again and have a great week!!

Looks like this car was originally a B2 but now has mostly b3 parts on it! It would be nice to see the top plate and inside the chassis, to see if it has the mounts for a sway bar??? That would tell it all! Very nice car anyway! Edit: Spoke too soon LOL! It is a B2! I would try to make it back into...

Some more pics here! :) I did find some more loose parts that appears to be from the B2. It seems like he really changed it into a B3. The rearshock mount that I found is slightly smaller than the other one that is mounted now, the front top-plate looks a little different, steeringblocks & block...

This thread is very useful for me and the pictures really helps alot since I have a (what I thought) B3, but it appears to be a B2 that has been upgraded to a B3.
Great pictures and a great looking car, thx for posting

Looks like a B3 with a B2 body. -Todd It has Aluminum shock caps,those were on early b2's. He might have converted it from a B2 to B3 at some point. The rear arms have 2 holes, I thought the later cars had a 3rd outer hole added. Ahhhh ok! :D Makes sense to me too since I found the 2-hole frontshoc...

Hello all! :) Since I am no RC10-expert at all I thought that I would ask You in this forum. I have been looking for a B3 for a while in a somewhat good shape, a "runner". A friend of mine here in Hamburg had one, a B3 he said. It looked good and we made a trade: (he got an old, not comple...

Wow, thank You all so very much, I am very happy that You liked it!

Thx a lot all! :D Yes, the Beetle hardbody is stunning (all 3 of them, the Scorcher, Monster Beetle and the Blitzer Beetle). I just notice that I wrote "Monster Beetle" in the title but it is a Blitzer Beetle body!!! Sorry! :shock: I assume it is because I am restoring a Monster Beetle rig...

Extremely nice, wonderful pictures!

Hi all :) Although my heart starts pounding more & more for the RC10, I thought I could post this Sand Scorcher. It has a MB-body and the chassiparts have been beadblasted. I painted it with 2 different grey (German Grey and Hazel Grey) since I just wanted to try something that is not really &qu...

Is it still on-line? You can post a link here, no rules against that Is it this You mean? http://www.sm7tog.com/kyosho/ That one is "buried" now since I didn´t have the time. This is the new one: http://remote360.blogspot.com/ -easier and fits me better :D . It´s just a few hours old so i...
