RN-1 Ultima Pro Special Convert Kit

Quote

Post by dinglem » Thu May 04, 2023 12:09 pm

If anybody on here is a member of the Iconic RC Fb group you will be aware that i have been going through mutilple old Japanese RC mags ranging from 1981 to 1990. I have posted up literally hundreds of pictures this past week. I will slowly start adding them on here but this car in particular caught my eye from Nov 1990. I have never seen or heard of this conversion for the Ultima before.

Enjoy! (Sorry for the grainy pics but they are quite small in the advert).

Wow that's narrow at the front , very long arms . Cool add .

If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.

Of course you haven't heard of it, it is "covert". Says so right in the pic.

I just picked up a Ultima Pro at the local junk store, in a box with a radio shack monster truck for $20.00. All the Pro is going to need is the upper fiberglass tray and a body. Dave (DW911) has this upper tray for sale and I was wondering if any...

My very first RC grade car was a first gen Utlima my Dad offered me in 1987'ish and I had a blast with it for several years until it was replaced with a TopCat and I started racing at club level.
Since then, I have badly wanted to build one with all...

At my local anodizer, gold is more of a carburetor color, and champagne, while I haven't tried it yet, the samples look perfect for this.

Just picked this up. I always wondered what they did about the kickup on the ultima. Apparently the answer was Hot Trick

Pics speak for themselves, needs some cleanup but should be a nice build! Except..... well...you'll see it :twisted:

8) We just don't see enough cool Ultima stuff around here.. Be sure to put a big wing on top. To me sprints look naked :oops: without them. :D

Ok. I have a lot of the parts to do it just have to do it. Maybe if they still available after the holidays. I was able to get a rc10cc so my discretionary fund is depleted at the moment.
