    Lovely job on the buggy, Andy! I think the paint is Tamiya PS-16, one of my favourite colours! It looked really smooth out there, and anyway, all buggies need to get a bit muddy and grassy! Same here, better to see them doing what they were designed to do rather than just for show. Nice one, matey! :))

      Hi Mark cheers chap, yeah that’s sounds right Tamiya ps16 it is a nice colour you just tend to see it on Avantes and Subarus ;) I was surprised how smooth it was but that diff was buttery ;) and a bit if grass and mud never hurt anyone . Cheers Mark :)

    Nice job of sorting that buggy out mate, looks fantastic. And like you, I love to see these old cars running and not sitting on a shelf. Awesome stuff!!

      Hi Barry , I’m almost happy to run in most conditions except mud bogs and when it’s bitterly cold ;) but yeah you’ve got to run them ;) if there not getting used I can really justify keeping them

    I’d love to have a jrx2 .. been one of my dream buggies since I was a kid. Used to hang pics of them from RC car action in my hobby area as a youngster

      It’s a very very cool buggy especially the 5 link original jrx2 , but any jrx is a cool thing. Hope you manage to get one at some point in the near future. Take care fella

    Very cool! Nice of him to let you hold onto it for a few more days to get a run in! Don't worry about the grass and dirt, it just proves it is in running condition!! LOL! Fun seeing another old one running around!

    A nice runner there Andy, im allways looking for a jrx. More to see the 5 link in action. Was supposed to great on bumpy tracks 👍

    • @andyrobinsonrc2480
      @andyrobinsonrc2480  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Richard yes the 5 link was meant to be great on bumpy tracks unfortunately redundant on todays modern tracks and surfaces. Brilliantly cool buggy’s though a 5 link would be awesome

      ​@@andyrobinsonrc2480 for the gear cover - you need a friend with a 3D printer or vacuum former :-)

    Hi there Andy, looks a great looking reconditioned buggy (well, it will again, when you’ve given it another clean😂). I suppose the new owner has got a great new platform to upgrade from, it looks like it really runs very smoothly. Take care and best wishes 😊

    • @andyrobinsonrc2480
      @andyrobinsonrc2480  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ha ha yeah I did have to give it a bit of a clean up again when I got home before sending it to it’s new home. I’m hoping it will be run in some vintage races at sone point with the new owner, either way he was happy I think. It wasn’t fast but it was nice to drive and smooth was pretty happy with it.

    Looks Great Andy. Be nice if Losi released the 1/10th.

    • @andyrobinsonrc2480
      @andyrobinsonrc2480  ปีที่แล้ว

      Cheers Adam , would be awesome if Losi released a re re jrx in 1/10 saying that I’d like them to re re the XX more ;) but any would good

    A question/s to you and everyone else:
    Whats your favourite classic buggy release? and do you think Losi and or yokomo should get in on the re release action? From what i can ses the classic meets are gaining some serious attention many have more competitors than modern race meets?

    • @andyrobinsonrc2480
      @andyrobinsonrc2480  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Douglas sorry for my late reply. Cheers for watching. A difficult question my favourite vintage buggy is the Associated rc10 b3 tied with the Mardave cobra. Losi and yokomo should definitely get in on the re re action as they did some amazing buggy’s and cars. There is certainly a big following for vintage race meets and a lot of clubs now offer a vintage heat to race in. :)
