Yep....only a few bucks....if your hobby shop is near by you can save the cost of shipping and get them there.
I always remembered them being in the airplane section of the hobby shop. They even have this little device where you can refuel your plane without removing the fuselage.
would be great for a nitro truck. i purchase about 15 to 20 years ago and still havent used it, lololol

It's been a very busy year for me. A lot of saving, selling of stuff, purchasing a house, but I'm still at this truck one small piece at a time.
I was most worried about cutting the windows as I've done some pretty horrible cuts in my days. I decided to just go for it and it came out pretty nice. I tried propping the truck up in the rear to mimic the angle of the truck on the box.
And the most recent of my purchases was a couple pieces of the radio gear. I never planned on taking this truck this far to a replica but why stop now. Thanks shoman24v for your help today.
And lastly a random shot of the rear
Still more to come.

Awesome! Great job!
I love the rc10gt, It's probably the unique nitro car I would love to have in my vintage collection.

Thanks guys, only a few more things till its a finished replica. Sucks about the throttle servo being wrong. I thought I was one step closer and now it needs changed out.
Felt lilt taking another comparison side by side this morning.

Uh Oh! Looks like it's going to be a sprint to the finish to get theirs 100% correct. I've made some progress with mine lately

Very nice! It's too bad about all the deleted pictures, I would have enjoyed looking them over again.

Your not missing much Rod. The pictures from reading my post were just close ups of the part as I found or installed them. It's been very close to what you see from almost the beginning.

It just jumped out the box!
What about the throttle servo is incorrect?
