Meteor body and wing , surprised the wing is ABS the website said it would be Lexan as the mould was to fragile for ABS now .

Not quite in the mail..... but met up with this nice Jason bloke today, after he drove down from Sydney to Melbourne (1000+kms) to say hello... 01.jpg He dropped off some stuff that has been piling up... 02.jpg Including a massive box of Schumacher vintage parts, cleaned, categorised and organised. ...

Amongst other progress and going back and forth between shortening a chassis or not I painted a body. I suck at painting but I used a tape that I like better than Tamiya masking tape. It's about as simple as you can get but still 5 colors. My camera makes it look pinkish but it's definitely red. 202...

This is a replica I am doing using all vintage parts....it's replicating an Ultima the Diamond One raced in the 80's....the chassis was a beat up pile I restored, along with the TrackMaster tranny...it will be a slow process, but here's the start

Another good day with the postman, with this errata arriving :) First up, a big bag of bearings from my good mate Bullfrog . He sent these to me for my TT01 rebuilds - just another way I am in debt to this great bloke. 100 x 1150s, 50 x 850s, and 24 x 1280s..... should keep the machines running smoo...

Good way to keep people safe from the germs associated with money, is to keep the money away from the people.... and, in that respect, I have to say THEY are doing a great job.

Here are some progress pics of Grendel's resurrection. She's been in body & paint since just after Christmas 2023. I never liked the original EF8 olive green color, but I wanted to remain true to her green roots--while doing something nobody has done before. Spent hours googling green-painted ca...

I finally dyed the battery box and made some new low profile shock towers to fit the SRT body, so far so good. The front tower is 10mm shorter and the rear tower 18mm shorter while still retaining the stock shock angles. I just need to make the rear trans brace before I get back onto the chassis whi...

Just need to finish some final touches but I like the way it's turning out so far.

Summer 1993. A Works91 in little used condition was for sale at the local hobby store where me and my best friend came regularly for a visit after school. Normally they sold Tamiya stuff only. From first view this Works impressed me like a spaceship. But unfortunatelly not my parents. Thinks got eve...

RC10T built from a mixture if NIP parts, FanRC shocks, Andy's painted Team Moo-ish body, MCI decals, Reedy Ultra Mr. E, etc.

Are you implying that there are Eclips that aren't horrible? :lol: Dunno about azone but I'd say there are e-clips that aren't horrible... they're the ones still in the packaging. :D Speaking of which, azone, putting the dates on the first post is awesome 👍 but looks like some got transposed. I'll ...
