I got a pair of vintage front shocks from a Kyosho Raider because I needed the upper spring retainers for my current OG Ultima build.

Freaking sweet! I restored mine a couple of years back. Have had it since it was new. I still remember the old RC Car Action 2-page spread for this truck and it made me fall in love with it. At the time I was a broke kid and my parents weren't going to indulge me in expensive power setups so I was ...

I've mentioned this a couple times in other threads but, my brother had been storing my childhood Blackfoot for the last 20 years or so and I just found out he had it about a year ago. Got it back from him last Thanksgiving and went over it to figure out what it needed and a significant portion of m...

An off the wall one I'm not going to link because it's got just a little vulgarity, is the video for the Drum and Bass track, "Joyride", by Amaro and Walden, which features animated characters cruising and getting into trouble around London in a Tamiya Wild Willy. Edit to hotlink an image...

If you can find some older Losi springs, they fit. Any of the big bore stuff will require a spring collar and different cups. Any idea what model Losi? I do have some springs that are Traxxas "Big Bore" spring that I believe are for E-Maxx and T-Maxx, part number 4649R. Good diameter, bad...

I know it's not necessarily vintage but could someone measure the diameter if the springs used on AE RC10B6.4 13mm shocks please? Part number 91947, 91948 or 91949 and possibly others. I'm looking for springs with about a 15mm diameter, 60mm length and 2 lb/inch spring rate to use on the front of my...

OK, friends, the rebuild is complete. Thing runs awesome and I love it. For tires I used Duratrax Speedhawk premounts. Really nice tire/wheel combo for the $. I also got a set of NOS HPI Super Radial tires that I mounted to the stock wheels after stripping the chrome and dying them black. I don’t re...

So happy I'm not alone in the drunk R/C shopping business!

little late to the party but a mild brushless would be the max those belts will hold up to. Belts will slip and stretch under hot brushed setups but the rs4mt is a fun truck. Wish I would've paid attention the the drying up aftermarket parts on these when you could pick up stuff cheap. Mostly the h...

I gots me sum goodies today too. Some NOS out of package factory tires for my HPI RS4MT and a pair of cheapo Amazon servos, one for the RS4MT and one for my up-n-coming OG Blackfoot refurbishment. This one is my first hobby grade, got it for Christmas when I was probably 14. Beat the snot out of it ...

They look awesome. Never seen blue flavored carbon fiber before. What did you use to cut them out?

This arrived yesterday. Has been added to the rebuild queue behind my OG childhood Blackfoot. Winter cannot come soon enough...

Never heard of it, good to know though. Maybe I'll throw a decent vintage Novak ESC at it and see what it'll do then.

Well...inebriated Ebaying strikes again! I'm not mad thought, been looking for a decent deal on one of these for a while now and although it does need a bit of attention, it's all there and in decent shape. Definitely needs tires (severely dry-rotted) and I'll probably pop for some new wheels. Body ...
