bottom of the spare parts bin buggy
well after sorting all my old gear
I have this one last parts buggy (also found a pretty intact t2)
its pretty intact
the 6 gear is in need of a rebuild, has some broken turnbuckles , and the light gold A stamp chassis is scratched
im torn , with all the rc10 buggies I have I actually don't have a shelf queen original goldie
what do you guys think just clean her up and rebuild the tranny give her a new shell and let her live out the rest of her life on the shelf
or since she has aftermarket wheels and tires just go ahead and go all out and fully rebuild it as a tricked out runner
mabey just get a re-re chassis and some nice white andys/rpm arms and make her a true shelf queen

Re: bottom of the spare parts bin buggy
well tomorrow and Monday are the days my store is closed , so ill be starting something lol
I already have one hell of a runner rc10 (brushless with modified stealth with b4 slipper and 3/16 axles)
so im leaning to a shelf queen
now the question is leave her bone stock or giver her the upgrades she deserved back in the day
I did order this body and it arrived today
(that would be a question to save for the b/s/t area )

Re: bottom of the spare parts bin buggy
I dunno, I guess I would go with the T4 and Reedy (I'm partial to both brands). I like Kyosho but I don't think I'd install a Kyosho motor in an AE car. It just seems wrong.

Re: bottom of the spare parts bin buggy
I'm leaning towards the reedy as well (thought I had a old mr t's modified somewhere )
im a bit more partial to the tekin lol (used to run the crap out of an old 410 back in the day )
but the novak does look a bit cleaner

Whatever you do, put the rear arm mounts on the correct sides.
