Very Early Prototype Associated Cars from Curtis

Curtis and I have been emailing back and forth quite a bit thanks to Gene for getting our emails to each other, after messaging Gene. During this time we spoke about the development of the RC10 cars and also regarding the wing for his Box Art car, which I will be painting a wing for now once his pac...

Re: Correct information on the "Early Edinger" numbers

I didn't want to drag this topic up again, but felt it would be appropriate for future viewers on this topic. I was just watching one of the old videos that Gene sent me (the early prototype DVD set called "Born to Race", long before he started offering them for sale on his website), and c...

Re: Correct information on the "Early Edinger" numbers

Initially I thought there were less, of the no-stamp, light gold, fiberglass battery strap cars with Goodyear tires, etc... that we call "early edinger RC10's out there. But after mulling over the info that Curtis provided, coupled with information I had from Kim Davis while working for him, th...

Re: Cliff Lett RC10 Replica

Haha! I have too much on my plate lately to "race" to build it.

Ok more info for Cliff's 1990 Winner.
I just found out that those are NOT MIP shock bodies in the rear. They have a very dark hard anodizing on the Associated Shocks.

Re: OLD SCHOOL FUTABA RADIO

We still have one of these Jerzi, but it is in the light beige color (tan colored like sand) along with the Tan colored Futaba receiver and servos. This was long before they went to the darker colors then settling on the black.

They worked great way back then!

Re: Ruf's Room

I just recently rebuilt my old B2 and even managed to find the old body, wing and electronics she used to sport in a separate box. I then located one of the old Reedy race 6-cell black Nicad packs and tested it charging and discharging it a few times while monitoring the voltage, and the battery sti...

My 3rd Box Art RC10 buggy

Just a few days ago in early July 2020, I "re-started" a project RC10 Box Art car that I initially began almost 10 yrs ago. After building two other Box Art cars, this 3rd one got put on the back-burner and I never got back to it until now. I will try and post progress pics. https://i.ibb....

Re: My 3rd Box Art RC10 buggy

In the last few days I made some more progress on the car. The car itself is close to being finished now. For this build, the Novak 4 I wanted to use is a very old one that I bought and owned personally since the 80's (my 2nd one I believe) and has the male plug for Futaba receivers on it, so I deci...
