bought this GT off a buddy for $60, no motor. old radio I'm surprised even worked. ugly old wheels and tires and beat up body

got an OS 18 cvr, futaba radio, proline wheels/tires, and JC illuzion painted by larry at KG

this is my first rc in almost 10 years. i had a GT when i was 12 or 13, and couldnt pass this one up. little harder to find parts now tho,lol. JC don't even make this body anymore

Very nicely done. I have a bare bones Rc10 that i want to build up myself. This will be my first one. Right now its just a rolling chassis thats waiting for parts.
Yours looks sick.

Love the tires. Have em for my mt2 and they work awesome for side and straight bite

thanks guys! ya i really like the gladiators, there sweet tires!

 

[RamP]

What did you need for the os to drop in? Did you use the stock motor mounts as well as the gears and clutch from the original engine?

 

[Redlined]

straight drop in, just gotta make sure to get the (S), short crankshaft

 

[RamP]

Awesome. Thanks. Is it fun as all hell to drive or what?

oh ya its sweet. tons of power! it'll pull wheelies all day, id like to go up a couple teeth on the clutch bell and get some top speed, its got loads of torque so it shouldnt affect acceleration any
