Car ID Help
Hello Everyone,
I am new to cars. I picked this car up at a yard sale. I am not sure if
it is a Bolink or a RC10 ect. Any help will be appriciated very much!
I need to find new tires for it.
Thank You,
Darrell

Re: Car ID Help
Any hobby shop that sells 1/12th scale stuff. But you'll need a new rear axle and right & left hub, as new rear wheels use three bolts to attach instead of two...

Re: Car ID Help

He would still need to purchase a different passenger side rear hub and other odds and ends. The early 12L's used the two bold wheel as part of the differentail assembly. The later cars do not, and the wheels will not fit regardless of the hole orientation. -Jeff

Re: Car ID Help
not really it was not pretty at all. the car was dragging the ground I couldnt figure out why it was such a handful to drive. then we figured it out right before the main, but it was to late to get use to it before the race. here's the bottom, thats traction compound, ie glue!GJW wrote:5th!! nice work buddy.
