Thanks people , I think the speed is just right for what it is , as for hiding , no I don't , I'm a 51 year old bald , fat guy and I do WW2 reenactment , when I'm in my British uniform I look like captain Mainwaring from dads army ! So being seen with an RC car is nothing !

If I remember right, these were Kyosho's answer to the Bruiser. They were sold with several different bodies which were Jeep Indiana, Chevy Pick-Up, Ford Ranger, and Datsun. I believe the electric version only came with the Jeep and Chevy bodies, and the nitro version only came with the Datsun and F...

I do have the almost irresistible urge to get it running, just once. I cant seem to find any video of one of these things running, and am super curious as to how they drive... I get that same urge with every project I begin. It may take years for that urge to be fulfilled, but I just can't do a bui...

Just finished painting this one yesterday. Thought I'd share some pics.

A little bit of finishing up. Full clean up and wiring reroute. New pair of correct rear tires for the new rear wheels. Still can't find new front tires but these aren't too bad. Rebuilt shocks with new silicone 5mm X 9mm hose. Changed the springs as the springs that were on it were both non-origina...

Check out the sorry turd I just came across on eBay.

Hi, first test run at the park today ! Fun to drive this CAT after a 34 years nap, so much nostalgia... https://i.ibb.co/xsRjpm5/IMG-9178.jpg https://i.ibb.co/FgQsdF6/IMG-9181.png https://i.ibb.co/W5gcXQ4/IMG-9186.png https://i.ibb.co/Zg7vBKm/IMG-9185.png https://i.ibb.co/ggJM5VN/IMG-9183.png https:...

The body looks great Tomi and it appears to fit the chassis very well. I'm curious about how you are attaching the back; I assume it's fixed somehow to the shock tower? The paint work looks very Ultrahive. Really nice! That body is painted by Ultrahive, the first I got from him years ago. It’s been...

It's starting to look good Todd. :D I think once you add decals and details that it will take away from the deformed area. A very gorgeous truck man! Thanks Alex, and you’re right. It’s not exactly box art. But it’s not too far off. What a very busy sticker layout this one was. By far the most I’ve...

I like the more "cornerish" styling on the body. There were alot of bodies that looked like melting ice cream in those days.

Its already putting Lazarus to shame , can't wait to see it finished !

It's like they changed their mind halfway through the design, but didn't want to start over.

Tamiya PS49 sky blue , amazing color ! https://nsm09.casimages.com/img/2019/09/01//19090112014823605916387505.jpg https://nsm09.casimages.com/img/2019/09/01//19090112012523605916387504.jpg https://nsm09.casimages.com/img/2019/09/14//19091406004923605916408050.jpg https://nsm09.casimages.com/img/2019...

Beautiful build, blast! I really like your color choices for the paint, quite original! I see you mounted your LiteSink the same way I did with one of my builds, mounting it inboard instead of outboard. I think it's meant to be mounted outboard so the heatsink is outside the body where it will get s...
