Have you thought about Bolink cars? RJ Speed currently makes a lot of the old Bolink platforms. A good deal of them are 1/12 scale and pretty easy on the wallet.

Car in the second pic is not the same as the first. Other than the different part colors, and the different wheels, the second car is a graphite chassis and car 1 and 3 both have an alloy chassis.

Mmmmm You got dinner and a hat!

Most of the time with enough wheel time the parts that need upgraded become obvious. For instance my wife's slash had a problem of breaking steering bellcranks when she would hit the wall very frequently. So a titanium gear servo, and alloy bellcranks was an upgrade that was able to resolve the iss...

Keep in mind that there really isn't much difference between a vintage rustler and a modern one other than electronics. Compare prices with a new one and account for wear and such. In the end you decide on what you are willing to pay. We do not discuss prices and values here. What its worth to me wi...

I like the bodies on these older ones much better than the new rustler bodies. I'm in for more pics. from what I can see I have to wonder if it was ever ran.

I do auto restoration on 90's Honda's and other small cars like Triumph's. Spend most weekends during the summer months at small local car shows with my imported Japanese Kei car, a 1993 Honda Beat Version Z. I teach kids to do basic mechanics, body, paint, and custom work. (Sadly the kids these day...

Phones listen for targeted advertising. I have allegedly been known to grab a buddies phone and say keywords like "fat, weight loss, viagra, impotency, granny porn, transgendered, sex change, ect." over the next few days it is always entertaining listening to them mention the messed up ads...

Savox sc-1258tg is my go to servo for most applications these days. I needed a low profile servo for one of my cars and went with a Savox sc-1252mg.

For mine I used old diff balls and thrust bearings because they had not had much use. My diff is nice and smooth with the McMastercarr rings. Due to the weather and the fact I still need new bellcranks I have not ran mine yet but I don't believe there will be any problems.

Appreciate the interesting points. I think the generational point about attachments we have to the hobby/modeling aspect is a good one! I like the period correctness of having a NIB with a story. I think that's the value I place upon the B4 stealth. I would agree that RTR's today probably don't giv...
