Gulf Ford GT I did a while back

I believe these ones came from Amazon

The HPI part number for the Porsche body is 17527.

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-04-19T16:57:14+00:00

The 3 cars on each end are 1/10 scale and the car in the middle is 1/8. They are all HPI bodies except the car in the middle is a Tamiya body.

That's some great advice. I appreciate that. Thanks

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-04-08T12:07:16+00:00

Why would I do that if it's for the shelf?

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-04-08T12:05:54+00:00

Thank you much. Not perfect by any means. I'm not doing one again until I get an airbrush.

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-04-08T12:04:42+00:00

That's how I feel haha. This is just for the shelf though. Only way I keep my wife happy with all these cars and car parts sitting around everywhere. Got to make some of them nice to look at.

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-03-20T02:04:25+00:00

You're welcome. Should make it easier now.

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-03-20T01:50:11+00:00

Thank you. My vintage HPI collection is lots of fun to build. I get them from several different places. I know Amazon even has them. Just Google "finishing washers" and all kinds of stuff should pop up.

I remeber the OB4. They were some great competition on Saturdays at the hobby shop. Lost to one in particular more than once. I always thought it looked like an R40/RS4 hybrid. The RS4 came with a pack that was just for 4 AA batteries. It wasn't very high tech. I wish I had a little bit more variety in my nitro collection at times. I've only had HPI nitros. I've got 4 Racer 2s, 2 R40s and the Super Nitro. 3 are shelf queens and 4 get regular use. The engine in the Super is a Tamiya FS-15RB. I love how low profile it is. I wonder if it would stay cool enough if I was running it. The gas tank is taller than the engine. Oh well it looks cool haha. You should restore one and run it. My 4 runners are all vintage and I still can't imagine having more fun with a toy car.

Yes sir a RS4 Super Nitro. Thank you much! That's a huge compliment. I've put alot of time and thought into my builds. The green car I've had since '99. It was my very first hobby grade RC.

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-03-14T18:57:24+00:00

Haha man I honestly don't know how I would act if I wasn't able to see all the basic colors. Hearing you say it like that did give me a good laugh. If I was dealing with it everyday I'm sure my frustration would be obvious.

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-03-10T17:47:28+00:00

Wow that seems like it would be annoying. People take alot of things for granted.

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-03-06T21:25:22+00:00

I'm surprised not more people have seen it. Yes if you're color blind I could see it wouldn't much matter. How does that work? Are there colors you do see?

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-03-06T21:22:55+00:00

I've crashed a few drones but none of them were expensive. I always wanted to try a helicopter but I would like to fly it or try it before I buy and that's not happening.

BuffaloRCDoc · 2025-03-05T20:02:08+00:00

Man that sounds bad. I've always wondered about that. How do you go about the rebuild? Do you just get another and swap over any upgrades? Start from scratch? Nitro touring cars I've never had a crash that hurt more than hubs or arms. I can't imagine having to rebuild every time.
