Re: saved from the closet: late 80's RC10 with vintage hop-u

Re: saved from the closet: late 80's RC10 with vintage hop-u

Here's my old charger I used back in the day. I bought a NiMH 7 cell for my RC10 after bringing it back here to my place and charged it a few times on the old Juice Machine, being careful not to over charge it (and probably not charging it nearly all the way, either). http://i124.photobucket.com/alb...

Re: saved from the closet: late 80's RC10 with vintage hop-u

Use brake fluid to remove the paint from the nylon. Or buy re-re parts. ;) So I tried brake fluid tonight and it didn't seem to remove the paint at all. I used Dot 4 synthetic and left a part in it for maybe 20 minutes and nothing, nada. Is there a different grade I need to use or something? What e...

Re: saved from the closet: late 80's RC10 with vintage hop-u

I need front wheel bearings for my jelly beans, is 6902 the right PN from AE? If it is.... 50 bux for 4! :shock:

I found these on ebay for 13 bux a set, that sounds more like it http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/370975632369?lpid=82

where do you all buy your bearings?

Anyone have a recommendation for a front bumper that would look good on my buggy? "Period correct" (and avalable, lol) would be a bonus :mrgreen:

Re: Anyone ever heard of a TC3 Nitro to Brushless Conversion

Well, for me, I already have a NTC3, and I like doing custom stuff. Anyone can just buy a TC3, but then they would have an "ordinary" car. Kind of the same reasons I built a 230+ hp VW bug, would have been much easier to just buy a new Mustang... :wink:
