Right On. I have never done that, but there are people who have.

This is were I hung out when we were hot-n-heavy in them, lot of good help - like here when its knives. There are guys on that site that have converted to lectric.

Ok, thanks, I’ll check it out, I have some parts I can use off of the other two electric cars, but I might just want to start with new ones, but like I said we’re on a set income, and the fact that I just had to put all new parts into our tub faucet doesn’t help! But I’ll keep you up to date on whatever I do, that and if I start anything on that other old school 4wd/4ws belt chain drive one,,

I joined the forum, I posted introducing myself, I’m under as TheMadPlumbarian, I guess I should go check out the other r/c stuff and radios, only thing is there upstairs, and well it’s not heated up there, Brrr, especially only being 20°f! That and it’s buried!

You have some cool old stuff there - I had some that was my oldest sons when he was in his early teens, he is in his mid-30's now. I dug that stuff out of the attic, there were a couple of them, basket cases. I have got them rebuilt and only missing just a couple hard to find parts and they will be 100%. I could modify and make the parts, but I am eat up with wanting 100% authentic - I am like that on most everything. I will go sign in and poke you.
