My problem is if I take too long to collect the parts I lose interest, get new ideas, and then totally change direction on what I want to build. :x
Right there with you on that one!

Pretty much have been dormant all summer as far as rc goes. I'm really struggling not to sell off a major portion of my collection right now in order to support my other hobby. I've been preparing my 1967 Lemans for paint all summer, and when time allows working on my 1954 Ford F100 project. I do have a Topcat project stalled on my bench right next to the Lohas Ultima project. The other side of the room has a box with my Kyosho Progress project. Hope to get motivated soon! :oops:

I've been struggling to get anything done with builds lately. With the winter indoors racing about to start i've been busy with cars that actually see a track :lol:

I couldn't say that any of my vintage cars is 100% finished, there's always something else..

The car that's currently on the bench is this one :

Well, after working with the museum exhibit until May (http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=27601) my motivation has had a stall... Want to start something off now for the winter season - a struggle to decide what new project to dig out!

This list is LONG

Finish my rc10 6010 (not much needed clean old body, paint new body and pick a motor)
RC10 Graphite on road mid engine conversion
2 RC10Ts
RC10 Graphite 49 merc "recreation" of a car I wanted to build as a kid
RC10 Gold Pan 63 vette recreation of my 6010 buggy that I turned into a carpet car
RC10 CE
RC10 CE "C" stamp chassis
RC10 B3 Runner
TQ10 new parts build
RC10L
Marui Big Bear
Tamiya Subaru Brat re release (paint body)
Tamiya Hot Shot re release (paint body)
Tamiya Lunchbox original MIB build
Tamiya Monster Beetle (source missing parts and paint body)

That's about it for now but I seem to keep adding cars at a rate much faster then I am finishing them! I have enough parts to finish most of the RC10 projects so hopefully by the end of the year I can get 3-4 of those checked off the list

I have a few...
Finished:
B3 Runner Resto, built for a co-worker to give to his son for x-mas :mrgreen:
Runners:
The kiddos T3 runner is first, needs body graphics and electronics before x-mas - almost new at the moment 8)
B-stamp stealth OIN, hopefully will be finished this winter.
My other runners always needs something, like the shock tower I broke on Saturday :oops: It never ends.
Shelfers:
12l (all white parts) bought this when I was 12ish :D
12l (All black w/ CC parts) my brothers 12, he was 14ish at the time. It's mine now, he's not getting it back :lol:
12l3 I wanted a newer 12 even though I have almost 4 already :wink:
I think that's all :?

Ain't that the truth! ....I almost broke the bank just upgrading to modern electronics in ONE car.
