Howdy from outside Boston - RC10 B2

New member here from outside of Boston. Grew up studying late-80s and early-90s RC Car Action mags and Tower Hobbies catalogs. Family budget dictated a Black Phantom from the Shack, and I loved it. Two-plus decades later I tripped across an RC10 B2 roller with a fresh Trinity Midnight motor. Haven't smiled like that in a long while. Working on a period-correct setup without too much fuss. I tracked down a Novak Explorer Sport is in nice shape, as well as a Futaba T2PHKA radio on eBay to chat with the FP-R122JE receiver that was in the car. I'll likely go for the JConcepts B2 shell. My current battle is finding a proper gear cover (AE#9247 or RPM#8032). Thanks for the ad. Look forward to chatting.

Welcome from Rhode Island. I just picked up my first A stamp a few weeks ago after 35 plus years of wanting one
