Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
he knows what it fits, the question is the maker of the aftermarket chassis. It appears to be translucent plastic. Could also be thin G10, but it has the bend at the front so it would have been molded at that point, which is unlikely

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Yup it's an 834b but it was the translucent chassis plate I was trying to identify .
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.
A problem shared is a problem halved but an advantage shared is no advantage at all.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Anyone recognize this driver figure? Looks Tamiya but can’t find anything with that visor/helmet configuration..then the roof panel is odd..

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
I feel like I should know this, and feel bad that I don't.
SRB rear, and looks like a widened SRB front, but I am not matching up the chassis with any SRBs on TB.
edit: might as well add this one from the same lot. No clue on the black thing.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
The srb has a crp butterfly chassis on it. Also has rch white plastics which are very desirable. A car with this upgrades likely has a mip diff as well.
The black car is a Tamiya Egress. Avante family.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Thanks Jeff!!
I had today off, and wanted a road trip, so a 6.5 hour journey later, I have a new "lot." Most of which I need to sell off pretty quick as things that make their way into the garage tend to stay there. The SRB is part of the stable now though, and that was the main item of interest. I was expecting to contact factoryworks.com this afternoon to purchase a new chassis plate, but this one is darn nice shape overall (overspray on the top for some reason). I couldn't tell in the original pic, but it had a Tekin G-10 on it, so super bonus as I have always wanted one, and since it came on this car, it will end up there. I have a lead on a SRB F150 that is local, and the seller has agreed to separate it from the lot it is in, so hopefully that deal will work out, as the F150 is my favorite of the SRBs.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
No go on having a diff.
I'll have to look around and see what I can do to remedy that.
It was hiding a little AE love though!

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Look into the Tamiya 54897. I "think" it's what you need.
Always looking for new and interesting ways to waste money.
