Very cool model!

I know I'm dragging this up from a year or so ago but I had the same issue and ended up buying a set of 2.2 wheels from JC Racing Products in the UK as that Gove much more flexibility of tyre choice. The design is the same as the TO wheels but I ordered mine in pink just to stand out a bit! They're ...

I'm certainly no chemist but I have stripped a few RC bodies during the past few years. There are a lot of different chemicals that work to varying degrees - some work more quickly than others. Anyway, I believe in many cases the cloudiness or fog you are seeing after the old paint has been removed...

Decided to shoot some paint...
Not sure about the wing color yet?

I assume you have seen the (modern) MST Toyota monster truck...but just in case.....its pretty cool but a weird blend.

I found that HPI has a 1/12 scale trophy truck and that Ivan Stewart bodies are still available for it. https://www.hpiracing.com/assets/images/cache/105721_105721_003pp_314_235.jpg If 1/10 scale is more your flavor, have your considered getting a clear body slash kit and painting the body in an Iva...

This was my version of the Tamiya Monster Racer.

Not sure what direction you are taking with this...the pics you posted of Ivan's truck are the desert racing version. He also raced a reg cab in the Mickey Thompson shortcourse series and there is a ton of detailed info if you follow the link...if that helps or simply makes for good reading on racin...

Hi all, I received a chassis that I noticed when it was released in 2013 but too much confidential to find an affordable one in good condition. As the luck guy i am, 4 weeks ago on a well-known site one of them went to a very good price for the visual condition and especially with box, instructions,...

A little more progress

Here's a differtent kind of build in regards to what I usally do. Still miles to go on this, but wanted to get the colors on just for pep. getting down to the "scale" details to try replicate Bailey Coles #13 Ultra4. We will have to see if he is racing his Trent Fab at KOH in Johnson Valle...

Almost final result, although it is missing the number plates which I need to cut in white vinyl…





I’m very happy with the result…
