Colt 10 EP Touring (EP01 RTR)

Recommended Posts

Following my recent post in which I asked for help identifying a model :
https://www.tamiyaclub.com/forum/index.php?/topic/106844-help-indentifying-a-vintage-car/

And thanks to bsy2010 , I was able to built it back.


Here are some pics and personal notes (as I found no instructions or manual except the exploded view).

The "Old Lady" in her dust, just out of the package :

 Body is not original and its rods are broken. There is dust and dirt everywhere.
One of the two battery holder has been hand made. And it seems that the belt tensioner is missing.

Rear hub is back :

It was far from easy to reach that point because of the belts.
This kind of transmission is new to me and assembled and disassembled many times because of (but not just) : "Idiot, you have put the longer belt on the rear part", "You forgot to put the short belt around the main transmission axel", "Short belt is in place, you screwed everything but you forgot the longer one ...", etc.

Front arms and knuckles. That was an easy part.

Direction and upper deck in place.

Shocks on !

The Lady is back on her wheels (that I forgot to clean).
She needs a new belt tensioner (which is somewhere between UK and France), a motor and ESC (to be mounted today) and we will be able to have fun her and I ;)

Thanks again for the help in identifying this model.
