Tamiya TL-01 Rebuild.

Recommended Posts

TAMIYA TL-01 REBUILD FROM SCRATCH
Bumped into this tl-01 chassis on a local auction last year , the main reason for buying was the lightweight chassis and it was cheap.

All torn down, the shafts and plastic bearings were worn out The chassis itself looked very good seems like the car was rebuilded with the lightweight chassis after it was driven for a while since it has minor scratches at the bottom of the chassis

After giving it a good scrub with degreaser a toothbrush and hot water it looked very clean
the overal shape is outstanding since this is a 20 year old chassis

You may find the servo stays are a bit short unless you have the aluminium spacers!?

Nice work :) The white racing wheels suit it well. Are you going to add electronics?
