Got a '10 that was showered with rocks.Grit blasted the pan,hand sanded the pan to smooth out the nicks anddeep gouges.Dubbed X-10A. Made aluminum stifner bars,welded a 2"X3" beneath the 6-gear.Brazed adapter for front servo. debating weather to paint pan or not.Also made a small wing out of aluminum.

My grandson came for a 3 week visit and he was promised he could help build an RC10 for his own use . We started with the premise that this was to be a runner not a shelfer but maybe still could look nice. I was a little surprised how much time it...

after seeing some pretty cool beatle on this and TC i have been bitten by the bug (lame i know but the crime would be not to use the pun) so i polished up a hole ridden pan with a hot trick wide front end grafted in a kyosho lazer trans half a...

good idea to put a mid-motor transmission on the short wheelbase: should help to keep the front tires in touch with the ground.
If you can : flip the servo over and mount the ESC across from it. That's a heavy piece you'd rather keep low in the...

I built this truck from mostly spare parts left over from my GT that I converted to oval and added every RPM part I could find. The noseplate and front bumper were about the only NIP parts I used. The chassis, rear bulk, and rear inner mounts were...

That's a cool truck and an even cooler story! I love these kinds of builds! :D

I got a new to me car recently and it's all clean and polished and right off would look good on the shelf , however on close inspection two of the three diffs are screwed and the whole steering system would drop apart the moment it started moving ....

Most of my builds are shelfers. All of my cars could technically be run but sometimes they’re not set up to run well. For example, I just built an RC10 with vintage Proline “hard” 2.2 rear tires. I bought some current Schumacher spike front tires...
