I added some vintage aluminum rear hubs and front carriers. Blue LRP heatsinks on the esc. And unfortunately the blue buggy battery brace isn't long enough, but gives a rough idea.

Last picture is next to my FT B3.

....so much for my custom painted body from Andy, it came back today.....UNPAINTED!....with no explaination... I am a past customer too. Man, that's weird and disappointing. :? It was gonna be bad-ass! Oh well, I'm excited to see what you have up your sleeve. This was the inspiration received_26029...

So a basher bashed a Traxxas. Shocking.

Glad it survived. Sheesh. That's a sweet car.

I have had decent success with hard white plastics and Salon Care 40, and was planning on treating multiple chassis with this technique. But that is only, at best, going to bump the overall whiteness up a notch or two on the teeth whitening scale. The orange spots / lines would still be present. I m...

Well, the first chassis turned out better than expected giving that I had to sand out the spots on it that I still don't understand. All of the flat spots were sanded and polished, and all of the low spots got a Salon Care 40 Creme treatment for about 8 hours (4 each side), and I am 90%+ happy with ...

Question about the Traxxas 7171 rear wheels. Do they have the right offset, or do the shorten or lengthen the rear wheelbase. Thanks again Yes, the offset is correct. It might not be exactly the same as original but it falls within spec. And it's track width, not wheelbase. Wheelbase is front to re...

So I have finally gotten around to rebuilding my first "hobby grade" RC car. I started searching for a rebuild candidate about a year ago, and couldn't find any at the time. Then I missed out on a pretty good deal on a pair of them. Then it just seemed like the great car never came around....

Oh, I have one for you Brian...

Got some painting done, and most of the runner chassis is complete. The normal black paint for the truck chassis was a bit too gloss for me, so I need to get some matte. Of course the local HT doesn't have any, so need to go to the one an hour away sometime this week. I am also still waiting for the...

Its not finished but getting close, shocks not right yet so still trying to dial that in, trying a 3rd set tomorrow, hopefully: hint (premium Tamiya)...the body is finished along with the electrics...here's a sneak peak

The shelfie is just about done. I still need to paint the driver, but I will do that the same time I paint the one for the runner.

This thing came out better than I thought it would. I honestly can't stop smiling at it! I am 13 again!!

Here is one of my projects I have, not really a resto since its in such good shape, but thought I would show it off.
