I like this build. For being "left overs" it looks better than some runners. Another fine build.

Re: Low Buck Build Entry - left over old-new RC10
Thanks
Once I get it complete I think I will also include this second body which fits better. It's not as fresh and unique but it will stay on

The gold stands out nicely against the all black car. I think it looks good.

Re: Low Buck Build Entry - left over old-new RC10
I agree, that was a temporary body until I got the one for this buggy painted...took forever to decide on a paint scheme for this one. I'm finally going to be running it on the track soon too. I'm stoked!
Re: Low Buck Build Entry - left over old-new RC10
That one looks really good. I like the body a lot on that one.

Re: Low Buck Build Entry - left over old-new RC10
thanks, I just took this out for it's first test run after having it sit all winter. Once I retightened the spur gear screws and the pinion's set screw, it works really good too. I would have put some loctite on it but don't have any with me.vwjuice wrote:That one looks really good. I like the body a lot on that one.
I broke down and ordered some Klein arms for the left over buggy I had money burning away in my paypal account....I have no control
I also got some shock bushing from the LHS. Now if I could find a old motor guard I will be all set.
This one is about 55-60% left over and the rest is new, but I think it will make someone on here happy when it sells. I will be happy too, because then I will have some extra coin for the electronics I want for my current 10T project
Re: Low Buck Build Entry - left over old-new RC10
don't cut your new body for this project yet. I have sent my '91 tower to Jay Dub and he will see if he can make some.

Re: Low Buck Build Entry - left over old-new RC10
I'm not cutting a new body for it, but including the two bodies (black and blue, and the black and gold) when I sell it. What's this about towers, 59burst, is that post for this thread or meant for another one. I'm confused, then again sometimes it doesn't take much.
Re: Low Buck Build Entry - left over old-new RC10
I'm sorry that I made you confused.

I've seen that tower, and I think it's one of the best looking custom towers on here
I have to keep in mind that I want to use up as many parts that I have already and buy as little as I can to finish it off. If I were to break my front tower on my old/new pan buggy, then I could have to get one of those towers.

Re: Low Buck Build Entry - left over old-new RC10
having just taken the graphite car out I think I will swap rear wheels with this build. The Losi step pin will be more practical for me than the Double Dees for the surfaces I will be on. The DD tires would only be used a couple of times though, so they will be like new.

Re: Low Buck Build Entry - left over old-new RC10
got my dynotech arms today
I put them on right away to see how they look. I also painted up one of my old motor mounts to match the chassis a bit better since it was previously blue. I noticed after snapping the photos that I need to put the e-clips on, but no biggies...here is how she looks. I got to go out of town for a few weeks, I will put it in the buy/sell/trade when I get back
Here are some extras I am going to throw in
