The orange ones with the 6 holes are the ones you can run, they are made to be run either on a three bolt or two bolt setup. Also BSR had some Dish style (Like the HPI Pan Car Wheels) that had three holes as well as one additional hole to run either...

Just out of curiosity. The pictures of the actual car . Why are there no scratches on it? That car should be pretty beaten on the bottom.

that's because that car wasn't used in the movie. well at least part of it. the car in the photos is gene...

I got the instructions today thanks , i had to ask the posty if they smelled of anything she said candy :lol:

Paul

i have a nitro ds i just finished building not to long ago and i am still looking for a body.

I regret having traded my DS cars back when I was trying to catch the new crop of touring cars back when, but I remember well the search for bodies that...

How can you not love these guys? What a pair of comics! :lol:

It's a shame these guys weren't starring in the American version of Top Gear..they would have been perfect...

10L with a Composite Craft chassis and Lynx-type Cheetah beam front end. Speedway or oval car.

Could be a Coyote Conversion.

Am I wrong or is the right rear tire wider than the left?

No you are right, I am not an oval racer, so I am not sure if they did it to change the grip characteristics of the car or what?

So i did a trail ano strip tonight ,and man that is some tough ass red
I have striped alot of anno but this was hard work it ended up taking three try,s
First 15mins no efect then 20 mins a slight change but still red then an hour soak .i used...

cool graaab it :D
Paul

Put the gold shafts in front,makes it look nicer and the front tends to move up and down more than the rear.The rears you really cant see so who would notice the difference.DON

thanks scr8p can you tell me if there was a brace on the top of the pod ?

Paul
it was a bent piece of kydex that served as a brace/body mount.

so the posty lefr this for me today
im pleased it only looks dirty ,all it will need is a good strip down and clean .
looks like a kyosho shock dont think i will change it just a rebuild
Paul

The CAMARO body is GONE :!: :!: :mrgreen:

i put a t cup of salt in a pan with the dye
lay some table knifes in the bottom to keep the parts of the direct heat .then rolling boil for about ten mins then simmer for an hour

then serve up with a sprig of parsley and some fresh black...

Just FYI, if you wat to convert to 235mm, I would not recomend the CRC conversion, there is a conversion from europe, that replaces the lower pod plates, and you dont have to run the hub extensions (Which SUCK!!!!!!!!! - they add quite an unbalance...

Maybe I'll get mine done before spring time comes around. Its only been an unfinished project for something like seven years now. :?

RC150 has specific brake system ( brake disk is beetween rear bearing block)

if you have photo of your car it should be more easy to find which car you have.

rc150 front end came from RC200
Rc150 rear endr came from RC300 (except break system)

The right side wheel is different, it has a larger hole to allow the wheel to bolt down to the hub but still allow you to adjust the diff.

Not sure it came attached to a Tomy intruder buggy as onroad conversion, not got it now, was maybe 235mm though looked same as one came on my RC10L spares chassis

My keen eye sees one universal axle and one dog bone axle. Maybe an oval thing or just a needed repair between races. :idea:

Anyway, it looks like a quality car that will clean up good. Nice that it has a good body still. I agree with ERouge keep...

Any photos of the car yet? :D
no, not yet :roll: I just threw everything together for a test run. Now that I know what I need to change (and replace :lol: ) I'm in the process of a tear down, cleaning and re-build :wink:

Part two. As I am still waiting on the brace, I have come across a second car, all original. It came over the big pond from Germany.

I have my boring bar figured out but my machine does not like boring and it is taking forever to get the right size. Becuase I am persistent, I am going to continue making a set of wheels for my 10L I just recently got.

I am going to write the...

Yeah id like some of them when can afford them lol DON

everything is 10lss. the car and both extra chassis'.

Thanks guys, almost done with 10t . Gave it a good cleaning and then let the parts soak in an aluminium baking pan for 2 days in peroxide . I actually put all the white parts in at first but ran outside to grab the rpm transimission case after...

I was afraid of that. I am attempting to strip one of the bodies I have, so we will see how that goes.

Ok, I will give you a call.
Thanks, Brian

RC200 box never opened. Depends if you are going to build it or sell it. Worth more if it definitely hasn't been opened. Amazing collection you have here. Any stories behind how you found them?

and the esc is the t-4 from novak

I finished up some more oldie pan cars. TRC Lynx and Composite Craft/rc12l hack job. Sad thing is, that the wife said to sell them.

I like the 12l set up for drag 8)

painting in the cold sucks and this is what I came up with for...

anyone know of any highspeed bodies? if I cant find anything im thinking of this protoform -

Thank you guys for the comments.
I strayed away from tecnacrafts on this R/C model.
I wanted it to be closer to the original as possible.
These sees rims were the ticket.
Also some mbrs asked why I use Tecs so much.
I actually will be selling...

I have an Associated catalog from 1979 that shows the Wolf F1 is part # 2116 L (for Lexan) and the cars that it would fit would be an RC 1A (for Indy Car or F1 body) but probably would also fit an RC 2, RC 100 and RC 200. In other words a very early...

Here are more pics

WoW speedcrazy! Nice Info! Thanks for the reply

You can get DS front & rear arms from Dynotech.

They're a little pricey but good quality.

looks nice Steve, when are you going to do this one up I believe this is the correct body that is in one of tecnacrafts adds

Hello murphy, I can't see the link. I would love to see the Tecnacraft ad so I can reproduce it.
Any other links or pics...

Mr. Lexan,

Have you tried to make a mold from a NIB vintage body for reproductions? If so, what material do you recommend using? I have two other related questions. Did you build your own vaccuform or do you have an industrial machine? And Lastly,...

I bought an NIB RC12IFS front end kit for $100 from someing in Asia. I've only seen a handful go cheaply. Usually they get a pretty penny for them.

Ben

Ill post my reply from them here:

Hello M,

Sure I can supply a 1/8 Greenwood Corvette body for $59 including postage. If you would like one then make a Paypal payment to [email protected]

Thanks,

Here's what it looks like using Traxxas parts.

Great! What I have is the version from your first two photo's posted. What I have is a assembled differential, some spare parts and a couple of hubs. I thinking that because the housing is a larger diameter than a standard axle, I need to find a...

That's nice!, I don't know if it was correct or not but I cut up a buggy driver for my TOJ ( after he was done taking a leak )

Its an Andys Mercedes I have two one for the replica of swaugers car.

You could buy Bolink or similar on-road front wheel adapters, then use narrow or wide rear wheels on the front to get the right width. I did this on my RC10 and M.A.N.E. Eclipse with rear BSR caps mounted on all four corners.
