Here are some pictures of the mostly white non-runner.
It has been a very long time since I had to thread screws into new plastic on a Traxxas. (RTR......

)
I should be able to start the black one tomorrow.

Thanks for the compliments.
Now I just need to get a couple TBG bodies for them.
Anyone know if they combine shipping, if you order a bunch of stuff?

I was going to start on my SRT today, but hexcrews sent me the wrong screws.

don't think tbg does but I'm pretty sure the best bodies for these Cobraken on this board has and does combine shipping.

Howdy,

Have enough extras to start another TRX3. There will be some cannibalising of my mostly complete TRX3 but this will be swapping out used parts and keep new ones new. Some hop-ups. Want to put a Lethal Weapon in it but will have to talk to...

I think I have a company that can make these Chassis.
Does anyone have CAD or a drawing of one?
The person that got them made back in 2013 may not be active on the board anymore. I emailed but I have not gotten a response.

It looks like I have...

I know that A&L dogbones for the TRX-1 are longer for a Lethal Weapon application. You might have those or some truck dogbones. Because standard A&L bones for the TRX-1 stock trans. are a direct fit.

Ok so I was fortunate enough to score an NIB TRX-1 from a member here at a very reasonable price. Thanks. You know who you are.

What do I do with it? I mean when I build it. I already have a from NOS parts shelfer, but building this one to run...

I am really looking forward to seeing this one. I had a Bullet, but I am not that familiar with the Traxxas racers. A couple of guys I used to race with (aka lose to...) BITD were sent free Traxxas kits. They would run them for a bit and do well,...

For years, I've always wanted to build a vintage rc car. After lots of research, I finally settled on the Traxxas TRX-1 (released in '91). I chose it because they are extremely scarce, and they were Traxxas' first majorly competitive model. Winning...
