So, I picked up this exceedingly crusty white arm rc10t the other day
Image
She was completeish and ready to run, and I did driver her out in front of the house. She was slow and awful. Guy threw in a nitro rustler which I promptly put on eBay, and it's already been bid to a point I'm happy so that helps.
She's very rough without the body installed Image
I'm not sure overall what I will do with her, but probably tear her down and replace any damaged parts, and clean and relube everything else.

I did remove the body and power wash, flushed away 20 years of grime, neglect, and dog hair. Oooh boy she is rough. Image
Has a losi hydra slipper, so that's interesting Image

I've seen a lot worse than that!
It's cleaning up well.
I've got a nitro DS that looks like it was left under a pine tree for a decade or so...that's gonna be fun...
:D

I like it....

It's not nearly as bad as how my 10T started.

Also, it appears to be using the short setting on the wheelbase. Anything need to change to run the long wheelbase?

Looks pretty good to me. I don't know about sliding the front mounting locations. Mine doesn't seem to have the ability to go shorter without changing the upper braces and servo.
