Colin has come up with a world class idear.
An emergency escape offroad life pod.
or
mount a camera on it and drive it ahead on lanes etc to save having to walk the route hence you get to stay in your cab in the warm and dry and it does all the advanced work

OOOOOOOooooo a RR sport.

That will probably be the closest I get to owning one  :cry:

Trying to make an exact copy of my hybrid using the LR 90 radio controlled car.  Only keeping the body though, need to find a car to go underneath.  

Thought about a Vanessa Lunchbox with the Landy top.  Might work!

Things look to have progressed a tad since my old Hilux was state of the art.  Would be nice to get a 109 shell for it!
Title: My New Off-roader
Post by: Colin 009 on August 31, 2005, 22:24:29
Wow nice old truck that is it still a runner? It would be worth alot of money now, to the right people. I think there is quite an intrest in classic R.C.

Here is my next project.
Title: My New Off-roader
Post by: Jim-Willy on August 31, 2005, 22:27:31
Yes it runs but i daredn't use it, its the only shell i've got.  I've a spare chassis, axles engine and box(3 speed manual high/low) though.  Where'd you get the shell?  Thats way good, i saw some similar ones at stainby.

That is a beauty, I fancied re shelling the Hilux as a 109. I may have found someone to make a shell for me now so fingers crossed.  I'll have a 1/10 scale 3 speed manual with selectable 4wd and leaf springs :D  :D

Putting new tyres and wheels on... Next bigger engine! :twisted:

 :idea: If you put little zip ties on the body pins it makes them easier to remove and find when you drop them. :idea:

I've got a T-Maxx (no photos though - too busy playing).  A few MC members saw it at Billing.

I'm looking for a 110 bodyshell for it.
Any ideas? :D

I use model sport in Leeds, get everytjing over the net. If you select models on the drop down menu, then nitro, then traxxas
Clixk on your model and it'll give you a menu of accesasories and parts you can get to fit that car. 8)
