If you look at the picture of the rear (the one with the left tire off) you can look at the inside of the right wheel at 200% and see a silver screw poking out. Don't use the image from the link I posted, you must down load the RCCA magazine to get a clear image!

Update!

So thanks to scr8p's info http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=21680, this is how I think the antenna was mounted on Cliff's truck!

I don't have the 410-M1c ESC to put in, and my blue wire on my mint 410-M1 is just a tiny bit short. I did not want to change the original blue wire, so I found this crusty 410-M5 that I got from Vintage AE. It's dirty, the wires are junk as is the switch, but I have a perfect Novak switch on that old Novak built blue Duratrax ESC! (Sorry about the poor pictures!)

I changed the 410-M5 from a 16g 4 wire to a 13g 3 wire ESC, and put in a new switch! The main heatsink has been narrowed just like Cliff's. :mrgreen:

Doh! :x :lol:

You sure? Where the antenna hole is showing on the body, that would line up with the rear side! Unless he put a bend in the antenna???

You got any pics scr8p?

Well, I put on the Associated chassis tape, and put the antenna on the front of the tower as per scr8p's suggestion!

looks sweet Rod!

too bad that last photo almost looks like an action pic...being on the top side of the turn, but the spotless and super clean tires give it away :lol:

BTW, I will be in town probably on Sunday or Monday. Maybe we could hit the track :D

Thanks! I wish I had the Lavco, white Proline and other vintage stickers to make the body complete! :(

Has to be Sunday, I work Monday!

I have some action shots but Tiffany needs to download them off her camera!

No animals were harmed in the shooting of these photos, but there was some cow tipping involved! :mrgreen:
