Nice clean build! It looks great. The shocks are the only aspect that seem a little off at the moment. Maybe they would fit in better with the over-all look if you take off the anodizing and polish them to match the wheels? (or switch them out with the new hard anodized -dark gray) I agree that a black litesink motor plate and Hot Trick rear shock tower would fit well with the look and the time period of the parts as well.
I like the idea of the black litesink motor plate and rear HT tower too. I would keep the gold shocks...a metallic red, gold and silver paint scheme could look really sharp! For example, red and gold stripes of some shape outlined with silver pinstripes with a white background. I'm just saying that the gold could add another dimension to the overall look. Looks sweet so far.
Thanks guys, The arms are Hot Trick, You can find a lot of builds on this site that use them, I have been undecided on the paint, But i like your idea vintage AE, I have to wait till the spring time to do any painting (No heat in the garage lol)

Hello all! I'm finally the proud owner of an RC10 buggy! Been wanting one since my early teens. Now with a family, home, job, etc. I was able to scrape up $250 to be set aside for an RC10 project. Then the wait... waiting and watching - eBay,...
Got a great deal from a guy at my track for a semi new B6. Semi new as in he won a kit in a race built it and put his hop up parts from his old B6 and sold it to me for $220. Unfortunately he is now sponsored by Kyosho, and he is loving the RB6.6,...

Does anyone else have issues with the Reedy 600Z case breaking from landing hard jumps. You know when you jump and you land right on the apex of the next jump! Maybe this crappy ESC is only good for bashing? This is the second one I've broke, I sent...
So I bought this on ebay last night. It looks complete, so I figure it was a good gamble. The overall design screams Delta but the T bar mount doesn't look familiar.
It looks a lot like a Villian, except for the mount. Maybe an earlier or cheaper...

Did a little work on this one.
Swapped the Novak receiver for a Tekin, to match the esc. Slightly modified an RJ Speed front bumper, and trimmed the body.
