Well, I'm pretty much done with the rere...but I have two more projects that I'll share here.

I built this RC 10 in the early 90’s while I was working at RC Car Action mag. Dig it out the other day. Had Tekin 410k esc. Carbon fiber tub chassis. Anodized old style shock bodies from Associated. Reedy motor. Did an article about it but don’t have the issues around.

So it was the July 1991 issue. Same body as used in the photos.
I remember we had a Massami car in the office and I traced the logo on the roof of his car.

One of the coolest touring cars we sold at the hobby shop I worked at back in the day.

I’ve never been so exited about the performance of a touring car in my life

Love the old Asian box speals some of them crack me up

There is a watts link sort of deal in front of the trans. There are arms that go from that to the a-arms. Then it's attached to a bar on the topside that the camber rods are attached to. If using the proper 2038 losi hubs, you can roll the chassis left to right and the rear camber will not change. T...

I had some pictures from when I built mine. Think they illustrate the principle. Setup with the Losi 2038 hubs and 0 degree arm mounts.

Videos on rc10talk fb group. Thumbs will put them here later. 2 successful test shots. A lot more to come.

Just got inspired by some threads on the Tekin conversion to post an old build. As per usual I had collected parts for a long time and wanted to build a mid motor conversion for vintage racing on modern carpet tracks. In 2014 I was ready to assemble a car for the Nordic Vintage Challenge. Ended up d...

An old scratched up golden nose plate was stripped and sanded for a good finish and kick-up adjusted to 25 degrees. Then a coat of black and the SACS mounted.

It's been a bit since I updated but I think you all deserve to see what progress has been made. Since my last post, I installed all of the tie rods on the front and back. That went pretty well! The front steering has a little bit more slop than I'd like, but that can be attributed to the imprecision...

Yup, last of the 10t line. Kit #7011 sport, "c" stamp, all black

If anybody on here is a member of the Iconic RC Fb group you will be aware that i have been going through mutilple old Japanese RC mags ranging from 1981 to 1990. I have posted up literally hundreds of pictures this past week. I will slowly start adding them on here but this car in particular caught...

Nice rear shock mount detail (which is actually the same rock 'n' roll design as the Dunn Pro Radiant front end mod). The upper chassis brace looks to be comprised of two bars as well if you look closely - upper and lower. 342885958_279559671166653_2920635493659941899_n.jpg 342720074_126018680458811...
