Dave's Cars & Stuff

The Dave prefers

This Page will be an ongoing thing. I have over 65 radio controlled cars & trucks. I'll post photos here as I get them and show you some of my projects. My favorite brand is Tamiya but I like pretty much like anything radio controlled. The closer to being scale the better. I like driving my stuff but I really like building and creating. That is the real enjoyment I get from this hobby.

Anyway, check back often. Thanks for stopping by!

My Tamiya Score while on a shopping spree in the Philippines in '07!

My Axial SCX10. NOW with Axial Trail Honcho body with lights & working winch! Note the Axial BTA steering setup but mounted in front.

!!SOLD!! BLING Slash! Built from spare parts. 99% Aluminum...

My custom Semi inspired by some cool big truck I saw while in PI. It uses the chassis from the Tamiya Mercedes delivery truck attached to the chassis from a Tamiya Knight Hauler with a Tamiya Box from the Box trailer mounted on top. The truck is not articulated. It is a single unit. Both front axles steer and all 4 rear axles are live.

My Traxxas Slayer with the Real #47 Traxxas Pro4 CORR Truck

My Pajero Cross Country chassis. All stock except for bearings & 55t motor. I'm gonna be thrashing it so I didn't finish painting the lights...

My Slash with the real #25 Traxxas Pro2 Corr truck. It's got Red Aluminum parts, VXL & 8 cell 3600

THE best car ever made... Other than a Tamiya of course

My Tamiya CR-01 Landcruiser! All stock except for the Pro-Line Hammer tires.

My Tamiya Hilux

A Tamiya TL01 chassis with Tamiya Mini Cooper rear arms to narrow the car so the Tamiya 2 piece 30mm deep dish wheels will fit under the body. The body is the newly re-released Toyota Supra with an old school Blitz decal set applied.

My red Tamiya M04 Re-Release V Dub plus an old picture of my original beetle that I sold years ago.

My Tamiya F350 is done! It's been converted to a 4 link rear suspension and now has a 4 link front because I blew the front leafs in a tumble down a hill. It has a custom solid brass rod cage setup in the rear. The wheels are Traxxas Stampede rims dyed black and narrowed 5/8th inch. I added Aluminum front & rear axle housings and made a servo mount on the axle (not as scale looking, but better steering). You can see the updated beater pictures in the Rock Crawling page.

My Tamiya TT-01 Z-Tune Skyline w/ full lights

I sold the body though. It now has the Tamiya S15 Silvia body.

A mild modified Tamiya TT01 with a Hobby Central logo'd BMW 320i body..

My Boat! It's a ProBoat Classic Runabout.

My second re-release Tamiya Frog (one in the box and one to build)

My Tamiya Knight Hauler Semi Truck with every option

My Tamiya M1025 Humvee

My Tamiya CC01 chassis VW Toureg body.

My Re-release Tamiya Hornet with old school Pro-Line gold rims & original gold Aluminum Nerf Bars
