RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

This is perhaps a bit more recent than other builds on this sub-forum, and less "vintage". I couldn't pass on this buggy for the price, as I bought it with a nicely modded RB6 in a package deal. I love racing my RB6.6 and 7SS at our local carpet track, so giving an older rear motor car a go should be an experience.


The car came a big bag of spares, lovely Velvet shocks, and best of all, a second RB5.

Very nice! I just recently purchased an open box RB5 for a nice price. It was only missing the transmission tray. The other cool part is I was able to source a sword body for $6!

You know, the lines of the Sword body make me think of a kit that I once had sitting on the shelf in my past collection...
Would this be a step too far? Let's explore that.
