Houge trailing arm Trinity carbon chassis RC10 6 gear resto!

Post by Zac_F71 »

Just bough it off eBay not 10 minutes ago! Plans have come to change for me and my 94ish CE will no longer be my "shelfer" this one will..

Plan are to make my 10CE a stock vintage class racer (will have CVD's, JC Hazard wheels/tires, and modern electronics)

SO this will get all my period working electronics!
Items I need help with -
Bearings if they're different from a standard kit
Choosing a body
Choosing period wheels/tires

Electronics / parts have-
Screw kit (new worlds- reuse Houge hardware)
RERE World's ball studs
RERE World's ball cups
Kyosho rear hex adapters (vintage)
Vintage Pro-Line 1.9/2.0 wheels
Lunsford retro turnbuckles
Novak 410-M5 ESC
Futaba Magnum 75mHz AM radio
Futaba S148 servo
AE Mr Superstock motor
Kimbrough 64p gearing
Reedy Zapper NiCD 6 cells! - 2 of them!
Gold shocks off my CE (replace black caps with gold ones to be correct)

Pics from the auction!

HA! I probably over paid for it, I was looking at a VERY clean TQ10 roller for a little more, but oh well this one will be nice!

Started tearing down my 10CE tonight, and went thru my vintage parts - found a Robinson Racing 64p spur gear and some Trinity aluminum pinions! Decided to run the AE Mr Outlaw superstock motor I had in the CE, and I found my old Pro-line 1.9/2.0 wheels and am going to run them. Going to attempt to dye them black though, instead of white I think..

Bought Lunsford retro turnbuckles, and RPM rod ends as well..

Was just informed on Facebook that this might be a Trinity/ Comp Craft chassis with custom made mounts for the trailing arms, and I just noticed it has early style threaded rod/round rod ends, and the early trans brace. Really has me thinking someone upgraded their Edinger RC10 haha

They look like the full hex ball cups to me.
