  1. Think FTX do a few bits as well. Worth checking modelsport if you want to keep it local [emoji106] Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  2. That looks great Mark; have we seen it before on here? EDIT: Are the tyres on the wrong way round!?
  3. I'm keeping an open mind on this one and as it's just a shell i'm thinking about it I can be patient and get somethign else whilst I deliberate on the FJ! Now have my eye on a Beetle....... Never had one so at least it'd be a first for me! Proline do a 12.5" for the Slash which is reasnoably piced so I wouldn't mind overly getting choppy with a blade!
  4. Defo the old style @bertberr. Think it was/is TAM51331 but i can't find that anywhere in the UK. Culd buy fomr Amain in the US but for someting like a bodyshell i'd prefer it to not be flung about in a boat / plane!
  5. I had a bad delivery from rcmart in the summer, 4 weeks I think it was. But,.my haul last week was ordered on Friday week before last and arrived on Thursday last week! Less than a week, awesome [emoji106] I did have to pay FedEx duty though [emoji20] Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  6. 313 pref but I won't be running the back half. Still it needs to look scale to that wb... I really like the older fj 45s so want to keep to that if I can. Already got countless pickup's, defenders, tubers! I do like the power wagon but they seem to be perhaps a little too popular for me. That said, Ive seen some amazing 1:1 custom builds which could be worth considering,. especially with the ftx body being relatively cheap. Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  7. Cheers@stimpy, I'm back to the drawing board on selecting another shell and there's no way I'm paying £100+ for the mst! Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  8. Ooh, I like that [emoji106] Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  9. Poldice perhaps?@Pistonhead might be able to help. Have you checked Facebook for more local clubs. Might be some in Cornwall on dark side crawlers who might know bashing spots rather than just trails and crawls etc.... Good luck [emoji106] Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  10. Quite the haul today [emoji16] Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  11. Gargghhhh, hadn't even considered it'd be anything other than 1/10. I only want the front end though; any magic way of finding out the actual dimensions of that anyone!? Thanks for the heads up @CarlC, appreciated;)
  12. Hello all, I'm on the hunt for a suitable body for a planned Christmas build and stumbled upon this but not knowing anything at all about them I thought to ask the community if anyone has experience of this at all please! https://www.cmldistribution.co.uk/product/AS41063/associated-cr12-toyota-fj45-bodyshell-w-accessories-clear I'm really interested in the quality; I'd presume they're top notch aok but best to check before I spend the cash! I did want the MST FJ but at over a hundred squids there's not a chance in h3ll! Ludicrous for a lexan body that. Greedy AF. @stimpy I know you're interested in the MST FJ body; do let me know if you find one for sensible cash! Thanks for looking.
  13. I went to CML to take a look but came away with a FJ Associated option lol! I'll be posting about that shortly.......... If you check the FTX Texan here; https://ftx-rc.com/index.php?_route_=ftx-outback-texan-trail-crawler-red you'll see what to expect👍
  14. Looking forward to seeing it come together oho.👍 @PraetoR, thanks for that tip, i'm looking at new shells at the moment, good to know about the FTX option.
  15. At least you got a nice rebuild project out of it @Jens👍 Looks nice and shiny now.
  16. Need a new receiver for my DX4C with at least 2 aux channels if possible please. Anyone have one lurking in their drawers🤪 they wish to part with!? Thanks for looking.
  17. That's a damn good shout, hadn't thought of that!
  18. After countless broken hex pins I decided to make my own. Titanium Grade 2 rod. 2mm thick, 500mm for £12. Cut to 12mm lengths. Perfect [emoji108] Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  19. Great pics oho [emoji106] Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  20. Lead springs for a trailer project and tyres for a woods crawler? Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk
  21. Nice ride; love the noise from a Sidewinder:)
  22. Looks so capable; you're going to need some proper serious rock to test it out. Perhaps just courier it to me and i'll take up the moor🤞
