I was going to cut this chassis up to make a stealth 1991 replica but I am sure I would have been given a lot of shite for that since this is a pretty rare chassis and its also never been ran... ok so anyways, I hope Jim takes this as a compliment, which is how it was intended. So for those of you that thought Jim's truck was super cool and wished you could have it, I offer you this replica. When Jim finishes his truck I will do the same and then sell it just kidding... well kinda. I am planning on selling this truck when I am finished so if you absolutely love shodog's truck and have been looking for a composite craft truck chassis, pm me.
Thanks for looking
Asa, do you have a part number or some kind of lead on those standoffs? I've been trying to find some of those and the only way I could get them was to get a whole ultima lol but I would feel bad trashing a whole car just for some standoffs.

Those standoffs were used on the Ultima's and Triumph's with graphite chassis' and Optima Mid's to secure the upper deck to the lower one. If you guys are stuck for them, let me know and I can have a dig through some stuff to see if I have some laying around.
McMaster Carr sells various diameter aluminum rods hard anodized in dark grey. 12" long, 1/4" dia rod is like 7 bucks.. You could always cut to length, and drill and tap some holes in the ends..... That's my plan anyways.

Excellent, i could really use the two stand offs because this truck only has 4... it needs 6 and the front two i am using are the steering posts, they don't look right. pm me you price or trade interests.
thanks

Today the last piece of the puzzle came in so now I can start my RC10T build. It's going to be rainy this weekend so what better time than to do a build. Here is my collection of parts so far. There are a few small odds and ends I will need to scab...

rpm made 2 different topshafts for the 2.65 trans. one for a slipper, and one for the hydra. i think shodog might be mistaken when he says he used a losi topshaft on the truck. the a-3140 losi topshaft is for adding the hydra to a 2.25 stealth. not...
Here are a few shots of my me too Cliff Lett replica.
I have all the electronics to replicate what he had published in RCCA, just need some time to install. Moo cow paint job will be sprayed on the original RC10T body (not a repop).
Hello!
Had so many pics of my latest paint scheme thought I'd post up the process of the RC10T Box Art Replica from back in the day.
My plan was to make as an exact Truck as possible as that in the ad.
See snaps below.
I know there's been...

Nice paint job! I'm going to follow your instructions pretty closely. I'm exploring doing the same thing as my original RC10T body is on it's last leg.
Curious what paint you used for the red and blue colors? Looking for the closest red and blue...
I know this car is old to you guys but it’s new to me, it’s my RC10CE :D . I have just received it from the U.S. and it's had a long journey. Some (if not all) of you will recognise it, as it is very distinctive and has been posted before. This car...

I can remember when that was listed and it’s but now price (still kicking myself), I think the guy had a graphite for sale at the same time. It’s a top shelf car for sure, stunning! I think I saw the thread when you managed to trade your wheels...
I’ve always been fascinated with R/C cars. I recall having a few low end ones that went forwards and backwards and only turned in reverse. One year for Christmas I got a Shinsei Dust Runner ATC 250 three wheeler. It was digital proportional and was...
Well thanks to Shodog My Pro is hasnt looked this good since it was new!! I didnt kringe as much as the wife did, when I plunked down the dollars for this body. But then I looked at it for two weeks before I had the heart to cut it :mrgreen: well I...

Is that you showing off your Tamiya Hilux in the recent AMPRO video?
If so, I think you've done a fantastic job pointing out the differences between the various Tamiya 3-speed models.
I had no idea the Hilux was so different. That's a very nice...
Picked up an RTR DR10 today at the hobby shop. They had a few hop ups for B5 that I picked up also. I’m running a 3s lipo and with the Stock 3300kv I wish it was faster. Having said that I’m still happy with it. I want try faster brushless set ups...

Nice lookin' DR10. I've been kickin' around the idea of getting into a drag car myself as a new project maybe this winter. Not to get into club racing, but just like you, just to overpower it and have some fun with.
