Nitro powered RC10 buggy.
Nitro powered RC10 buggy.
Made you look........
Seriously though, of all the gnarly builds on here I am surprised no one has made a GT to buggy conversion.

I remember at least one more that I can't find the link to.
Though this is the one someone needs to do a repro of:

Re: Nitro powered RC10 buggy.
That's another...the one I was thinking about though was a black tub with all minty white Team and GT parts. I think someone here might have picked it up off of eBay.

Re: Nitro powered RC10 buggy.
I did one just a few months ago.of all the gnarly builds on here I am surprised no one has made a GT to buggy conversion.

Re: Nitro powered RC10 buggy.
^^^^^^^
Do you have any more details on that? I had never seen it, but looks very similar to what I came up with. Did this "sidewinder" kit also use GT parts? Or did they have some wacky way of sending power to the stock trans?

That's all the info I've got. I thought I had some more pics of a buggy with that conversion, but can't seem to find them nowSixtysixdeuce wrote:^^^^^^^

The Brahma kit was out several years before the GT was. It also predated the A-Main/Dudgeon kit.

Re: Nitro powered RC10 buggy.
The Moody kit was for 10T and fit buggy as well, used stock trans with belt drive and was out before the GT...

Re: Nitro powered RC10 buggy.
So it flipped the trans around? How does that work out with the bulk head and shock tower? Did they supply those things with the kit? The GT is pretty much just an inverted rear drive & suspension set up with a different bulkhead.
Kind of a neat kit, like a miniature go-cart.

Re: Nitro powered RC10 buggy.
I've still got one nib also gotta thank Marlo for them! He wouldn't break the rules and sell to me before he was "approved" so it took a while
