beautiful! Sweet ride(s).

absolute destruction. If you cant find out how to reverse the servo, you can always snip the servo wires and reverse it. Or, flip servo to face in the opposite direction. Come to think of it, i havent seen a reverse function on my futaba 2pl magnum. But it has an lcd screen so if you take the time t...

Hey, i hate it when people assemble fast oldies like rc10s just to sit on a shelf. I race mine but i take care of them so they are in pretty good shape. ALso those propel bottles (gatoraid) spin off get 5 cents each for them. Just stop at the local safeway. THey have like 20 calories in them so peop...

ty for the bearing link (http://www.avidrc.com/?action=category&id=1), THis is the upgrade for vintage rc10s- link http://www.avidrc.com/shop/?action=item&id=11&prevaction=category&previd=1&prevstart=0 This is much cheaper than tower- now i can afford to do both of my cars with t...

awesome car! Pitty is its gonna be a pain to clean/ rebuild. Verry unique.

lol, no way to make toe 0 on this car. Lol before i read ur responses, an hour after i posted this question, i looked at the bottom of the pieces and the baztards are labled r and l (right and left)- i feel so stupid! BTW, look at my home made skid plate thread in general- my gramps and i made it by...

Wow you can use laquer thinner? you shoulda told me i got tanks of that stuff. Well someone suggested break fluid, and it worked pretty well, had to scrape off some of the bottom 2 layers of loose paint, top 2 came off by soaking. I purposely bought break fluid for this project, but now i will try l...

i ordered new tranny gears from tower, my original rc10 is gonna be sweeeet

Question- do the wheels kind of turn toward eachother in the rear suspension on the graphite model. I am not sure which way the peice that holds the arms on goes. Do the car wheels slant towards eachother? \----/

Well, im keeping you updated- heres more pics. As you can tell from the second pic, the rear clear shock tower came out great, sanded it down, sprayed it with clear coat, its so shiny, thats the first thing my friend said when he saw it on my desk, without knowing id redone it. The front right beari...

Well, graphite car is all finished now excepted electrical and rims, this is the graphite one in the above pics. My 84 original i have almost got all the paint off suspension and tub (gold), and will just repaint the tub gold cause of all the scratches. When all paint is soaked off, i will assemble ...

That is one awesome collection, gonna need a whole room to store all that i bet. Since you have a lot of bodies, i was wondering, what type of paint do you use. Do they make a special paint for the lexan bodies? I made the mistake of using regular painters touch paint, and it is peeling now. Big no-...

Didnt mean to sound rude on my last comment, that is quite the sweet ride btw, nice choice. Also, anyone know of any good batteries that last 5 years or more, havent had any luck recently, they usually die after a year or 2

Thank you so much man, this car meant a lot to the original owner, I would love to see it running again.

omg i love the noise of a 6-gear tranny, grew up with it. Had an original rc10, now got a graphite one. Unfortunately, my original tranny is bad, so only got the graphite one working perfectly. If any one has a spare tranny that would fit in an orriginal 84' rc10, let me know- pm me, ill pay for it ...
