Loving dinkyrc.com smoothie camper top. Got the Yota interior too. Now I need to make a working twist lock to hold the door shut. |

I've been thinking of a topper myself. What did you use for the hinges? Thanks Joe |

1/4 inch dollhouse piano hinge. Nelson Hobby was the only place I found it for a reasonable price. Here's a pic of it on my Damascus LiL Mac 3 I'm building. |

A quick wet sanding with 5000 grit and a clear coat and it's time for the tediousness of decals. I know it's cheesy but it's gonna be a bruiser. |

Didn't get anything done to my TF2 yesterday. But I got my fathers day present. This morning I feel like I spent the night with Tanya Harding. |

These vehicles are amazing! It seems the sky is the limit to what you can do. I have not ordered mine yet, but I think I will first thing Monday morning.

I wouldn't wait that long. Could be out of stock by morning. I would suggest ordering the R2 shift linkage repair thingie at the same time. What's $5 more when you're spending $400 already.

Rescuing a Weimaraner and fixing the mother-in-laws computer leaves no time for R/C before work. :(

Thanks. G.T. Power for the turn signals, brake and back up lights. And Kosta drift car box for the rest.

Got my solid lights wired into their controller. Gotta run to radio crap to get more heat shrink tubing before I can run the blinkers to their box. |
