i had thought it was just the front of another chassis attached to the bottom because the main chassis was broke through the bellcrank screw holes. but after i saw a composite craft noseplate, i knew that's actually what it was.

a couple of members have them on cars they've built. here's what i did with mine............

it looks like it started life as a 6 cell slotted composite craft chassis, with the wide front kick-up.

To me, the cab forward bodies make all modern buggy's look like those cheap RC toys that come ready assembled in a box with a clear plastic front. I don't mind low and sleek but cab forward.......pfffft......NO THANKS.

Again, as long as you don't...

With a bin full of used parts it seemed silly not to have a runner. Not modern, not old school- just whatever was kicking around. Topped with a TBG pantera body, I was thinking I was using racing red- it was bright red. Now she looks like a Ferrari....

Last post

Marc, that one got so little love that it almost didn't even get the windows masked out :lol:
Sold her a long while back. Decided runners are overrated :mrgreen:

I was hoping some of you could give me your suggestions on what ESC units I could consider buying, given my needs and my current equipment. I'll provide as much info as I can, and if you need anything more, please let me know.

The candidate: Kyosho...

Has any tried these?

Using spare/extra parts to put together a runner, no themes here. Going to use it to experiment with some mods (cut down tub, etc). She wont be pretty, but should run with the best of them.

Last post

Sorry this is totally off-topic but every time I see that front shock tower it reminds me of a lyre.

I wonder if the person who designed this part also played in an orchestra.

Okay, I will just return to my corner and shut up.

Decided to try and strip this body again with brake fluid. I soaked some paper towels and placed them inside the body. So far I have been able to remove most of the red paint.

This will be my airbrush test subject.

I can't take any credit for the scheme. I got the body with an e-bay purchase.

After building my Jrx2 series buggies and setting aside parts for another build or two, I still have a decent sized pile of used Losi parts. So I have decided to take the worst parts that are still functional…you know..the scratched, faded, rusty,...

Last post

I have been driving this truck a lot and decided to make it not quite so ugly with a body upgrade.

Shake and Bake!

wonderful!

i got a black rc10 tub, think its a 10T tub, or could be the remains of that team car that was in the box.it has a gold front end,gold motor plate,old brittle bell crank. the tub looks as if the thing was cut out, that looks as if it were factory ,...

Last post

yeah, the wrong chassis to see holes in. i would dye that trans case black, i think that would make it look a lot better.
