So, What Have You Done Today?

[Dojo Dave]

Unboxed this

You puritan's will probably curse me but I think it's going Drab olive with a little army willy inside. Why break a habit, I like drab olive.

Started converting my ORV chassis'd Fro-Sco to an SRB front end:

Trailing arm suspension front and rear - just like the real thing!

[Dojo Dave]

Decided to finish the body of the Wild one, couldn't decide on black or gunmetal so I used both here's a picture, eventually it will make it into the show room with my signature pic Wild one in the wild.

There is a video in the general discussions are apologies for mis placement but it's my first attempt.

[whahooo]

Today i searched the Internet for cars i don´t want because i can`t afford it and do not have the time to build and paint them.

I found an Avante 2011 on a local "craigslist" for € 250,- and the description says that a 2nd Avante 2011 is included for parts...

...in that offer is no Picture and the seller says if i would have questions, i have to call him.

So now i am in a unconfortable position, so should i get the cars?

Any other excuses I can give the wife?

Preaching to the choir, 5 cars in as many weeks

[Dojo Dave]

Sent a fellow TC member some Wild Willy Tyres, in trade for a very nice piece. 7-10 days Rob.

55T crawler motor fitted to my DT-03, and the wing removed.

Ready for me to not have to say no to a 4 year old

....but he`s selling 2 Avante 2001s, and that model, i`m not interrested in...

Played with my Porker. Need more of these cheap rims!

[Pjmaxxim]

Finished installing the FX-10 kit onto the Lunchbox, replaced the roll bar and driveshafts on the SRB and fitted radio gear into the Escort.

[NWarty]

Started restoring my Hornet as I have enough spares to make a complete one. Ordered a slew of parts today on the bay. Finally, I'll have the trifecta: Frog, Grasshopper and Hornet

[Truck Norris]

Finished creating my entry for the Fusion competition:

Fantastic work. I might make a replica of this using the hornet as a base. Not for the competition but it looks so amazing I want one too. If tamiya see this they should actually make it.

I did this recently too. It was great fun buying second hand parts and job lots to bring an old hornet chassis I got given back to life. It only had the gearbox, 3 wheels and a really rough shell. Oh and a driver. Piecing it all together and bringing something back from such a state is really satisfying. I built it for my brother so when he comes around he can race it against my hornet.

Congrats getting the trifecta. Nice!

[Sayer]

Test mounted the corrected 3d printed body:

Wow, really nice work, especially with the images. You've got me hankering after a scorcher now, questioning my change from blitzer boxart

Good luck with the comp, I think you're in with a great shout!

Good stuff Terz. I didn't start off with a Hornet but had enough spares to piece one together. It'll be about 1/3 vintage parts and 2/3 re-re. Bought enough parts this week to have a rolling chassis. Still need to buy a steering servo, ESC, motor and body.
