Build Showcase RC10T3 (my first ever kit RC)

This is my first ever kit RC I built back in high school (circa 2000).

hell yeah! i have a T3 as well. one of my favorite bashers. and if you want a new OEM body JConcepts makes them. i have one on mine, its a good quality piece.
and as for your collapsing tire rub suspension problem. could be the springs. i had that problem with mine. after 20+ years they were just worn out and had gotten soft. idk about right now, but about 6 years ago i was able to get brand new springs directly from AE.
 
@Suburban_Hooligan I didn't know JConcepts made bodies for the T3. I'll have to check that out. It would be hard to switch from the Nightmare body, I do love that one :).

For the suspension, I was leaning toward new springs so I'm glad you mentioned that. The ones on the car are original, so I'm sure it is time for new ones.
 
The body is cool!!! 😎
I love vintage R/C. Its even cooler when it has some personal story like 'first kit r/c'!
Are you planning to run it again? 👍
Yea, I'm so glad I held onto it all these years. I have actually run it a few times here and there, it runs great!. I just need to get new shock springs for it ;)
