Would have to get all his gear out first.... probably an impossibility.

If I'm moving in with RJ, I'll have no gear to move.... most likely will be in a big pile somewhere, on fire.

I've got plenty of room here .... He could even have his own RC room

Unless of course

Some more Schumacher goodness

Postman has been again.... more future projects being delivered.

This time it's a Tamiya TT01 with a carbon fibre 3Racing chassis upgrade, amongst other things. Carbon fibre top and bottom chassis, bumper hold-down, and also has a rear CF tower stiffener. Plus, alloy prop shaft, alloy motor mount, oil shocks, rear universals, rear locked diff, and red alloy rear end (upper and lower arms and hubs). Little bit of damage up front, and a missing dog bone and a few other parts, but not too bad. Condition is definitely runner, but still quite nice. This will go to the project table with my other 3Racing carbon TT01, and I'll hopefully bust them both out over the Christmas holidays.

Been wanting to get a vintage Traxxas for a while, either a Blue Eagle, Eagle LS, LS-II, Hawk 2 or TRX-T Eagle. But came across this SRT and decided it'll do for my one vintage Traxxas desires. Not sure what body is on it, but it needs a repo of the original LS-II/SRT body.
Pretty motor plate for the XXX-T.

Big thanks to Frankentruck for his 3d modeling expertise and designing various versions of the Futaba FXT battery strap to accommodate 7-cell NiMH batteries, and Jeff at Factory Works (GoMachV) for making the repo fiberglass straps. These two are nothing less than first-class guys.

And the Schumacher Cougar Classic arrived.

Mine are supposed to be on the porch now...

3D printed FXT wheels (next to originals) and other bits, plus a bonus 82 crystal. RC10 parts for RC10T to RC10 buggy conversion.

Apparently the last 2 pairs available from Stormer.

Awesome, one for you, one for me

I watched this truck on ebay, they don't pop up very often. Glad to see someone here bought it.

Stormer is great, what a fantastic guy.

I have ordered parts from him for years now, Bob is fantastic.

I couldn't believe I was the only one to bid on it.

Just a FYI.

If you just need the metal part of the uprights, you can swap them out with the axles from those of much cheaper Lunchbox uprights.

I had some with lots of wear from bushings. So I bought some Lunchbox uprights for $3 and pressed the axles with a vise and deep well socket.

I have a FXT that's missing the front C-hubs and steering knuckles. But good info regardless. Thanks

There's 3 motors I'm hunting for to sort of complete ( maybe) my collection but came across a couple of other nice additions while in the hunt.
