The old "I'll make this pile of parts into a truck for next to nothing" scheme original_5174d6fd-acac-4c86-9163-d6bdfaeb3b8b_20210905_103939.jpg But it never goes that way, found some old RPM JRXT conversion arms and well, then it starts (dremel used to make e-clip grooves) 20210930_185215...

Thanks Lavigna! For the longest time I couldn't find the BSW-55, but then I saw it bundled together with an assembled Turbo Inferno on auction (with a new BSW-60 blue chassis too). Now I'm trying to find period correct electronics, with the Inferno I'd look for the right receiver too since it's visi...

Here's my recently acquired, newly built, never run LXT. It's been built as a runner/racer for me to enjoy on my local tracks. Hopefully I'll find the time to post a build thread on it in the not too distant future. In the meantime, enjoy...

The longer this is discussed, the more I seem to remember this shorter chassis.

Got lucky and found it on the first search. If you don't already do it, using site:rc10talk.com in the Google search terms, and looking through the Images results are both a big help.

Here’s one that is currently listed on eBay, hopefully the owner doesn’t mind me sharing this pic :wink: Not seeing a servo saver hole in this one. 9F55B2C1-BE32-4E66-B8A9-EABDFFC38B00.jpeg Look closer it’s there under the servo saver Yea I still don’t see it :lol: 😂 508A6CF7-EBEE-44E3-961B-A505B19...

This a really special build and I quietly watched as it has progressed with interest as I have many years ago started a build of a Composite Craft Team car and tried to fit it out with as many RPM Team car parts as possible. When I got to the choice of shocks I was never able to make up my mind but ...

Just had a Team Car along with Team Truck dropped off. They both need a bit of TLC. How difficult are replacement parts to come by?

So many great cars & trucks here guys! It's been ages since I've touched anything RC related, but my collection still shines bright in the corner of our living room

A few more pics taken in the day:

Another beautiful build. Where do you source all these rare parts? Just Ebay? Some super-secret store? And what do you use for a backdrop? Your photos are always so clean. Thanks, always inspired. I reckon he has a time machine and he travels but in time when ever he’s doing a build….. it can be th...

That's a cool way to mount the wing, looks spot on. I assume you have to undo the grub screws and slide off the wing to get the shell off? Cant see the rear of the shell fitting between the tower and wing!

Also like that you have smoothed off the tower where the original wire should be - nice touch!

Lookin great, what manufacturers hardware are you using ?
I really like their sheen.

Woah the pins an eclips !

Thanks

Nice looking buggy...and that hardware!!!
Well if your going for a white transmission you might need a white front bulkhead to balance up the contrasting pieces.
