Any other collectors on here or people with some older cars laying around. Post up pics of what you have. Older the better

How vintage do you mean??

I have. Couple ill have to get pics of
An rc12L. From the early 90s. And an early 80s 12th scale hard body tamiya Porsche, but it is in pieces and past the point of no return. I kept it around for nostalgia

i have a gold pan rc10 and sledhammer around for similar reasoning. i would love to find a way to get them into running order in stock configuration to put around with at home and the track.

I would say pre 2000. Or any kit that has been discontinued for a while. I just like to see cars I haven't seen in a while and I'm curious to see what people have tucked away in their closets that they have forgotton about.

I'm not sure what really qualifies as vintage but older the better.

How did you acquire that truck from RCCA? Also, how about some body off shots?

I've always wanted a Wild Willy because they look so awesome and seem very fun.

Jato, I got the truck from Thundertech , I have known Darren and Brad for years , both really good people. Darren got the truck back from RC DRIVER and I was out there in Chicago for IHOBBY, well I ended up with this truck , he wanted to clean it and go threw it before I got it , told him NO leave it the way it is !!
It was used at IHOBBY that weekend and then sent to me ,still has the dirt that RC DRIVER got on it , never been cleaned. Ill get some more pics for you .

I picked up a Kyosho optima with period controller, charger and stick pack at an opp shop for a crazy low price, I haven't decided whether to sell it or keep it yet, I'll get some pics up soon.

Me and my buddy bought these new in 1986 (just sold them to pay for SCX10), they sucked for crawling ,, but will miss them. One was still gas and the other i rigged up an electric & ESC (much better than the stupid gasser )

My original lunchbox. 1987. Loved that thing. I "loosely" modeled my p4de after it for nastolgia reasons...

[romulus22]

Cool cars guys keep them coming.

A couple more of mine.

Original Blackfoot



RC10T

[FastEddy]

I got 1 or 2 of them.
Most of them I got new and raced. Over the years I have restored them back to original with original parts.

I have 30-40 more that are in various stages of restoration.

Dang, I'll have to get some of my stuff out of storage and grab some pics. The RC10L and RC12LW still have electronics in them from their last race in '93 or so. I even left the NiCds taped in there! I would regularly convert both of these cars to SS versions because I didn't have the budget in college for four different cars, but I raced onroad and oval. I also have an original RC10 with an Andy's "Monster Truck" conversion.....before they started calling them "Stadium Trucks".

[paleblue46]

Sweet cars EDDY, hey are you gonna make it to Bajafest this year?

[Lobonyc]

Feels like I took a trip down memory lane.

This is a cool thread!!!

I've only ever wanted 1 car back, and finding it in a condition I want has been trying. JRX-T with the 5 link suspension.
