Picked up a couple receivers. Kit form
They don’t *not* build em like that anymore

Holy pile of Radio Shack parts, Bat Man! That reminds me of Doc Brown giving the Libyans a box full of used pinball machine parts.

I got my first RC10T. It's abused and dirty, but has CVD axles, 3 piece rear wheels, and... Say lot of work required. There seems to have been some fascination with wrapping everything in silver tape. Shock tubes, nose braces, chassis sides, trans brace, etc. I guess it was to get a polished aluminum look, many years ago. Something a little nicer should be coming next week.

I've already cleaned it up and replaced the antenna wire. Yes, I used a black antenna wire on a 75mhz receiver, and the world did not end.

While I know that it should be green, the remaining stub that was on it was also black. But it could have been replaced at some time in the past.

USPS surprising me with an early package ..... on a Sunday! I love when cars are just frozen in time.

Wow, USPS is really delivering packages today. I got a nice RC10T2 with CVDs, titanium tie rods, extra sets of front and rear rims, and some extra motors including a Joel 'Magic' Johnson 27T stock.

If you haven't already, check your turnbuckles with a magnet. I've got some AE turnbuckles that look like that, they are nickel plated steel.

Then I have others that look identical, that are titanium. One of my trucks came with some of both.

They weren't advertised as Ti, but they pass the magnet test. I'm just glad this T2 was well cared for, unlike the T that I got.

An open but unsed t2 dustcover 7372 and a servo mounting block.

Sweet!

Wow, slotted right between Masami and BK! Nice company for it!

I finally found a NER 2S.

Just received these SG Coyote arms by @Dadio Designs from Shapeways. They are spot on, look great and have a little extra beef! Originals are on the right.. Thanks again Gav for doing these!!

I got a pair of Scorpion trailing arms I just added a picture with my tablet , I feel like a technology god
