I just got a minty mint MISB RC10 B3 team kit #9032 for $100 today, did I get a good deal on it?
I got it from a friend who used to have a indoor clay oval race track and a on site hobby shop around 10-11 years ago. They lost part of the building to a fire because of a careless grounds care taker and a lawn mower and decided to not reopen.
He has got a shed full of stuff from the shop and this was the last kit he had from back then.
I don't know, he gave me a RC10T MISB Protoform Dodge racing body for free and he said he had a bunch of other misc bagged stuff, but I have no idea all what he has. It took him 6-8 months to remember to look for, find, and get me this kit. I needed a cheap radio for my boy, but he said he didn't have anymore of those left.
$100.00 is a GREAT deal. Check ebay to see what some B3 rollers are going for. I picked one up locally this past summer....glad I didn't have to shop ebay for it!
Special Thanks goes out to Erich Reichardt for giving me the opportunity to take and post some pics of the original!!!!! How cool is this piece of RC history. I am sure the racer truck needs no introduction, but the other...... Erich's tell me it is...

I remember seeing Cliff Lett's body forsale on ebay a few years ago. It was his 95 B2 body from the Japan Worlds and it was autographed. I wish I saved pics and won the auction. Hopefully some rc10talk member has the body and would share some pics.
A little side project.
I’ve had this in a drawer for a while and decided to get it cleaned.
It’s quite impressive what a thorough clean can result in.
Boiling water.
Simple green.
Toothbrush and pipe cleaners.
Brass brush on the Dremel and...

Final piece added.
The correct RPM springs.
If you need a pair, just send an email to RPM. They still have a stash.
Here's my from scratch build of my RC10 Worlds featuring barely any AE parts at all (mainly just the shocks and transmission, 6565 of course). Featuring carbon from jConcepts, chassis by xtreme racing, hinge pins and turnbuckles from Lunsford, RPM...
Hello I just wantd to ask if anyone had this kit or have pics of it built. I don't plan on building it yet. Just wanted to know if anyone has seen it before? If so how was the performance and looks? Thanks in advance...

Thanks, See I told u, yah the man..
I think I have the Andy's body here somewhere. Cool.
Until now, my newest AE vehicle was my GT, but I've been thinking I might get back into racing a little bit. I have three good tracks within an hour of me and a well maintained private track a block away. This truck popped up on craigslist today and...

The price on that thing was a steal! I've noticed parts seem more brittle and cheap compared to back in the day as well, I guess that is just how things go right? Great job on hte paint! Those relief cuts are very interesting looking! Glad it works,...
Here is a little story. Almost untrue but it really happened.
The other day I was searching through ebay looking for some parts to complete my RC10 fleet. Dont forget that I live in Germany and old parts are hard to come by. So I saw this NIB...

Finally I got the almost right ipc esc for my B3. Not period correct, but it gets it rolling. I found an old german Pro Formance P2 12 turn motor for it as well.
