  1. Hi I originally purchase this to restore and race at the iconic races this year. Unfortunately I'm not going to be racing much this year so I'm not going to get time to carry on with the project. So Ive partly stripped it down to see what I think needed to be replaced and ordered the parts. A few of the parts as you would probably know are hard to get so I ordered the 3D printed equivalent. There is also a new aftermarket shell along with a set of blue TRF decals. The shell is still in the box it came in but not in the pictures. The new parts in the sale are: 1x Aftermarket shell 2x Ball diff repair kits 1x set of front plastic hubs 1x set of "C" parts 2x sets of drive cups. 1x set 3D printed J7,11,3,4 parts 1x set of ball joint end plastics 1x Ali motor mount. £180 posted (for the U.K.), payment as gift or add the fee's I also have a G force 160amp (used), absima stumpy servo(brand new in the box still sealed) and a absima 8.5 motor (used) that I bought for it. These aren't included in the sale but will add for an additional cost of £130 Price includes postage (for the U.K.) EDIT. I will sell the electrics separately but only after the car has gone, if they don't go together. If the car doesn't sell then i will box it all up and put it in the loft for when i get time to carry on. Cheers Ross.
  2. Hi, yeah I've got it now. I'll post this afternoon. cheers ross
  3. Hi, I've sent a message, the money hasn't come through to PayPal, can you check the email address you sent it to. thanks Ross
  4. Helping hands are great. once you have tinned the wires set the hands up so the ends of the wires are pushed together, side by side rather than end to end (if that makes sense), heat both wires together and allow the solder from both wire to flow together, that where the wide 4mm tip comes in handy . if needed add a little bit more solder.
  5. Sorry I missed this reply. Not sure on the amperage rating but there is a label on it saying 13.5 is the lowest turn motor it will take. Ross
  6. Personally I don't like the small pointy tip solidering irons, I don't think they get enough heat into the item you are trying to solider. I use a gas iron with a 4mm wide flat tip for most things from 16g to 10g wire and never have an issue. have you looked on eBay or maybe Maplins for an item called "helping hands", it's a clamp that will hold the wire and connector whilst you solider it, they really help with getting wires at the correct angle.
  7. Have you contacted Jon (RCS) on face book, he's normally very good.
  8. What shocks are those please
  9. Go on face book and look for Puppypaint or RCS graphic worx. Paul (Puppypaint) is very good and reasonable on price. Jon (RCS) is the best in the business in my eyes and maybe more suited to the design above as it's special, I'm not saying Paul could do it mind you https://www.facebook.com/groups/324568760981794/?ref=ts&fref=ts https://www.facebook.com/RCSGraphicWorx/?ref=ts&fref=ts
  10. i was thinking about running saddles I'm taking the blue ball ends off and putting black on, you're welcome to them if you want
  11. So the Top Force arrived today. It looks good for the money and do me just fine. There are a few bits that don't look correct, well i know the rear camber link are incorrect as they are schumacher ones :). One front "C" hub is cracked, I'm going to replace the diff out drive's and the ball diff's feel like they need a rebuild, not too bad. Oh and its ball raced
  12. So today the DHL man delivered a Top Force to me that i bought on Monday There seems to be a couple of bits that need changing. The rear camber link see to be from a schumacher and the front ball ends are blue, id like them all black or the same colour
  13. Hi Maxyeah I think I was, I'll post a few better pictures when it arrives, hopefully it's ok yeah as it's the green and white one. The guy had the green one, red one and another up for sale last week for £400 but they didn't sell, I may go for it, I'm waiting for a fishing reel to sell on eBay with should pay for it 😂😂
  14. Well if it turns up in the post ( I hope it does ) I've just bought this for £112.00 inc postage. I'm also watching a super astute for £135, I may have to buy both 😝😝
