Do Junfac have a front brace as well?

Yesterday I posted out the last of my M38 spares as they sold on eBay and today I will pack up the handset and r/x that came with the XV-01 as that has sold overnight.
Ordered a circlip tool from Rc-jaz 👍.
More r/c this weekend would have been nice, but didn’t quite get there 😂

Just now, BuggyDad said:Yeah P&P is quite a lot, so I have tended to wait til there are a few things I want. They are quire good for lots of things, RCJaz, and the starting price for P&P is not at PJ levels.
I spent so much last month on rc, that small spends only will be the way forward for now 😂

25 minutes ago, BuggyDad said:I think unlikely. I haven't been hit with additional charges ordering from RCJaz, from a handful of small orders and one recent big one (a kit). That's where I got my tool from.
£11.10 inc P & P 👍

If I buy from Rcjaz will I get hit with VAT and PO handling charges?
None in the U.K. hence the question 😳

The 1/43 Solidio 106 turned up and I’m genuinely delighted with it.
If an Indigo blue Otto 1/18 turns up, I’ll have one of those as well.
HPI used to do a 106 body shell and it would have been awesome to me to have one on a Tamiya chassis -
Pictures are of my Indigo blue 106 Rallye in action - back in 2007 both photos were taken at Mallory Park.

Thanks guys.
So any of you have the part number please?
-
It’s time to pick one of these up -
All recommendations welcomed -
Ideally can be purchased in the U.K.
Any not to spendy 😂
Thank you!

Ordered one of these today - owned 3 of them back in 2007 & 2008.
Decided to have one as a shelf ornament as it was one of my favourite cars -
Part exchanged one, sold another and raced the 3rd one 🚗

1st new parts for the XV-01.
£19.50 delivered which is good value.
I’ll use a belt and the rear axles and the K parts and 2nd belt can be my 1st set of spare parts.

This is very valid point 👍

Did a little more on the XV-01 and realised my R/C was spreading out around the house - decided to gather it all up and put it all back in the spare bedroom.
Now just the XV is downstairs in the utility room.

I’ve decided to slow down a bit as I have a feelings it’s going to get expensive and I want to continue to enjoy the process.
My dear mum is going to buy the Yeah Racing screw set and my daughters are going to buy a set of bearing for me as my Christmas presents - which is perfect, easy, low cost gifts that will get used.

Actioned a little more today, with some more disassembly and some resorting plastics and metal parts.

Amazing, sounds like the ultimate LB.
I’ll be following your build without a doubt 👌

Do love my AmPro Hornet though.
Love the Ampro kit, fantastically well design and great tutorials as well.
I just can’t bring myself to pay the shipping 😭

However, you can see the chassis build from Poor Boys RC here:
Fantastic, thank you for the link.
Chassis’ extenders?
Camber correction kit?
Will you be doing a build thread for yours?

Nice, anything similar for a Sand Scorcher or Super Hotshot?
