Most good Tamiya Hobby shops will have in stock or be able to order. Tony's Tamiya Parts, Fusion Hobbies, Modelsport and Wheelspin Models are a good go to. I'm sure someone will be along in a bit with a link! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bwaaatch 528 Posted August 20, 2022 Finally picked up my Avante g6-01 project again. Started 18 months ago and dormant for a year! Sorted out a set of hi-caps, adjusted my stance (whole chassis angle forward a bit, three lengths of shocks needed) and set to work positioning driver and body (with cut out for servo). 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SimTechRC 144 Posted August 20, 2022 Okay, about me and my project. Finally, today I printed main deck in two copies. Because 1st copy failed to print... In total I spent 15 hours to configuring and printing this part. But result exceeded all my expectations) Some sanding in progress.

Have enjoyed running it as a tarmac rally car. Let's be clear... I enjoy much more re-building a vintage car or a Kyosho legendary series... And to run, anything is better than a stock Tamiya (I enjoyed much more running the Spider TF3 or the the Fantom EP-4WD)... I decided to start this one as the box is sitting under my desk and that is basically the only car I can complete right now. And I need to complete something :-) 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ruebiracer 1046 Posted August 20, 2022 Completed my DT03 Garden Racer for some fights with my nephew and his DT03 today. Long time ago that I added a model to my showroom. I tried a Retro paint job to get a contrast to my nephew´s modern looking Racer, so I created a Neo Super Champ DT03 . https://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.asp?cid=139022&id=34024 Hope you like it, my tribute to 20 years of TC.

ImALlama 1370 Posted August 21, 2022 Finished the decals on the merc, it’s now ready to be destroyed haha! I’ve found some nice roads and parking lots so hopefully it won’t get too beat up and last awhile but we’ll see I also cleared a small area behind the garage (approx 4m x 9m) to build a little dirt track, so now I’ve got to plan a layout and make some ramps 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Willy iine 18806 Posted August 21, 2022 (edited) For me, sprayed the wall mount cabinet for Willy's shop. Will assemble later today. Going to work on a gum ball machine next.. Finished the wall mount cabinets. Since it's directly mounted to the drywall of my real house, I used poster tape.. Hope it stays put. If not, I will use some thin t-pins. I think the shop looks pretty full.. If I ever do another display like this, I will include a 2 post. Edited August 21, 2022 by Willy iine 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
