That's a lot of stock, everywhere.

For some reason, the front body mount that was on this car, was shorter than a regular Edinger mount, which I was able to find the older original Ed. mount in a bag, and put it on. This shorter mount had a shorter body and mount, maybe a 1/4" shorter. https://i.imgur.com/qS5XWWS.jpg (3) thick w...

Got the decals fine cut and ready to go. Took longer than I had anticipated.

Nicely done! I'll use one of your pics with the estimated scale difference. Thanks! This particular JJH-Decal ebay seller is in the US, he got back to me saying if I can get him the correct scale, or size JG sticker measurements, he'll make it exactly to spec. Here is the MCI-Racing incorrect sized ...

If you're polishing it you'd want the Gloss one. [edit] missed the part where you said you already wet sanded. There are (5) cans of TS-15 Blue on this body, the chances of sanding through the base coat are next to none :D. I'll definitely get this thing as smooth as can be with the 3500 sponge, be...

Was thinking about building a Drift Bus, or Dual Cab after seeing this: iFsZSr6mFec Went to Amain and saw that just today AE added a Drift Car to their lineup. https://www.amainhobbies.com/team-associated-dc10-1-10-electric-rwd-drift-car-kit-asc30134/p1570769 Pre-order. https://images.amainhobbies.c...

Made a template for a bumper.....not sure the best/easiest way to cut the kydex.....so youtube videos, sleep on it, then give it a go tomorrow I suppose. 20240715_144516-min.jpg20240715_155822-min.jpg You can use the score and snap method, just like you do with lexan, but use a heavy utility knife ...

Got the 1/10 WGT10 arbor for the Contact RC Tyre Truer. https://i.imgur.com/P4p1MbZ.jpg The tolerances are so tight, that I didn't believe the Dhawk rims would fit this WGT arbor. It fits! https://i.imgur.com/uY8Ei7w.jpg The lathe that these wheels were turned on were metric, so while the opening is...

The cars start going over the cliff around the 9:00 mark. That looks like a lot of fun.

The containment box - https://i.imgur.com/WLyPFtC.jpg worked pretty well outdoors - this is not an indoors project (garage maybe). https://i.imgur.com/92Vley5.jpg The CRC Tyre File is a must have for this task. iOAw22bL7Gk The CRC Tyre Truer V3 is really impressive, accurate and with solid repeatabl...

Found your See's wheels on worthpoint.com, these tires are not what I was expecting to see. https://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-sees-aluminum-wheels-team-1868268747 https://i.imgur.com/C0ajLYB.jpg Here's a Worthpoint auction that claims the TRC #922 are another option for BBS wheels: http...

M2 hex cap screws to hold the 100-F wheels together.


The Yokomo wing buttons will be here tomorrow. Need to figure out the wing wire.

The TRC green dot set I bought in error, and listed earlier in this thread, measures a 1.89" inner diameter, or 48mm. https://i.imgur.com/yhVqC2t.jpg TRC 48mm ID donuts next to 40mm ID Jaco donuts: https://i.imgur.com/D9b0Q15.jpg The ones you have ordered should do it. Definitely let us know ho...

Wheel lots are an addiction. I must have a whole box, but never enough screws or tires to put them together. Have a bunch of those Pro-line slotted screws now. https://i.imgur.com/6hkRvgU.jpg Got this M2 kit from Amazon, used the 2mm x 8mm screws and M2 nuts, they work great. https://www.amazon.com...

Glued and trued, this project is now completed. https://i.imgur.com/L4VvahZ.jpg https://i.imgur.com/reYrCtq.jpg https://i.imgur.com/BgHyF3n.jpg Made both the front and rear 60mm outer diameter. Not sure if I'll add the ribs in the front wheels, that seems to make them split easier. I want to put foa...
