The B2 body was the second coolest body (I think) that ever came in a kit, then they eff'd it up on the B3... 1st coolest kit body for me, is the RCPS body on the worlds car... Reason I like the B2 body, because it was similar in looks to the Worlds Body.
That red body on my kit is the correct B2 Kit body and yes, they are hard to find. But I am on the hunt!
I really dont think so, because thats the body that was in the box of my never run B3. Unless the owner before me changed the bodys, what I dont believe.
Along with what Reg is saying, Side dams are different, the air scoop is not as tall, the corners all around are more rounded, the part that defines the hood, windshield and roof is narrower, its longer - The front of the B2 body rested on top of the bulkhead, the B3 front rested in between the bulkhead and arm brace... (Not a huge difference, only about 5-6mm's.)
To make it like new again and place it on the shelf... Just to make scr8p feel good, I might even put the electronics that came with it back in it. The Tempest Pro that came with it is like brand new. I forgot how big that ESC was, LOL.
Wanted to build my version of a factory team themed rc10b2. This is being built from an original barely used b2 and a mix of new parts. Here are my metal parts after coming back from anodizing.
Hi guys,

Awesome build on the b2! Reading your post is inspiring me to build my b2 as well! I have a NIB standard composite b2 chassis collecting dust..
Just now getting back into RC cars, had a Tamiya Fox back in '85, and new to the forum. I have acquired a RC10B2 and am in the process of rebuilding it. Besides shocks everything is stock with the exception of the FT Low Friction Ball Cups...

Are there any shock ends that fit the front of the B2 that don’t have a plastic pivot ball?
Traxxas 2742X is close. A little filing or sanding would probably be enough.
Awesome! I didn't think anyone would respond since last post was from...
I'm new to RC buggies and happened across an Associated RC10B2 with a broken front upper. Since I'm assuming they dont make the parts anymore, where would be a good place to find replacement parts? Also, which parts are interchangeable with...

That's some good advice. Thank you! I'll look to convert it to the B3.
I went to local track yesterday to get some parts and really got bitten by the driving bug. And none of my RC10's are still driveable and all are waiting for parts so I decided to build my RC10B2. I will retire it as soon as I get something else...

I changed the front axles to wide #7222 ones and went for a drive. With 27 brushed motor it was really slow but after so long break it was still fast enough. Hard to say how the car handled as my driving skills were totally lost. But as it now looks...
I haven't built one of these since I was 16-this is a later kit than I had when I was a kid, it had an update bulletin in the box and black servo horns, servo posts, 3 hole rear arms where mine only had 2 and holes drilled in the chassis for a MSC...

Good for you for quitting smoking, it's the best thing you can do and I know it's hard but you CAN do it!
If you feel any urges, just go and whore out some more Worlds Cars! :mrgreen: Pimp!
Thanks for the comments regarding the smoking :wink: I'm...
