I can't WAIT to see a great big 6'7" fireman racing these all over the firehouse!!! Somebody get a camera.....too cute!!! Posted by mhayman (Member # 146) on :
We bought these for my stepson last Christmas I think. He has a Mustang (I know, I know but his mom used to have one ), a Civic, and Chevelle I think. They didn't have as many choices then. I will DEFINTELY have to pick up the SS, in blue of course.
These things are really cool and they make mods for them - gears, tires, wheels. And you can get the cones for an Autocross setup too!
Did you see this one? Posted by blkragss02 (Member # 1801) on :

Thanks Bob,now I need to get one of those Camaros and the 35th LE body kit! If you see them at Radio Shack and don't mind picking me up the car and the body...I will pay for them. Posted by 35TH ED/ed (Member # 1709) on :
I bought the wht and blu last night as well as the LE kit and the Yenko kit.
My problem is that it says to put the car on the charger and when the light turns green its fully charged. Mine would only show green and the car would not charge up.
After several tries I got a red light for about a min and then green. The car worked but when it was about 4 feet from me I lost the signal and it quit working until I walked closer and stayed right behind it.
Anyone else have this problem? Did I get a bad car/charger?

Those things look so cool. Ok those of you that have one, tell me what parts are a must. I'd like the LE one but can't order it online and being overseas I guess I'll have to keep looking back from time to time to see when they are in.
Posted by T TOPSS (Member # 1674) on :
I see one problem....Only available in two radio frequencies..27 or 49Mhz. Only be able to race opposite cars with seperate ones. ei..white vs blue etc....

Ed,I was only able to pick up a white and blue SS and there was no 35th LE body at the Canton store.I gave the blue SS to my son for his Birthday.I really want that 35th LE body with the 1967 SS.Those things are so cool.Mine seems to have a bit more gear noise than my son's. Maybe time for a ring gear change and engine mod! Posted by Bello SS (Member # 1304) on :

Greg try calling the Shack in Dearborn as I remember it should be around your work. I had Canton hold mine till I got there . I hope you got the 2 different freq's so the both of you can race together.
Posted by sscamaro (Member # 1330) on :
I just picked up 2 white SS's and one 35th LE body. They ordered another LE body for me. It will be in on Monday. One set is for hookerf14. They only had 2 SS's. They had a couple of the TransAm.After I get off here,I am going to play with them. The girl at the Radio Shack was playing with one on the floor to show me how it worked. They are really cool.

Both cars come in both freq's. Check the box and see what they are. I believe one is 27 hz and the other is around 49hz.

Each SS I bought was a different frequency.I found 5 more 35th bodies that I may pick up today after work. Posted by 2002Z4CSS (Member # 1393) on :

Yes, all you need is a picture of the badge on your door and some decal printer paper available at Staples, Office max or any office supply store Posted by DanPazich (Member # 1352) on :
I also bought the 35th "past/present" kit. So if anyone would like it, let me know. It was their last one!

Just got mine in blue. No LE kit at this radio shack, will have to try another. I got suckered into getting the gear kit.
Posted by 2002Z4CSS (Member # 1393) on :
I think I will buy 2 more 35th LE body kits tonight.One to keep new and I will mod the other into a vert.If I can get my Brickyard 400 decal made that would be sweet! Posted by Mike Bonte (Member # 1892) on :
I got mine over the weekend as well!
Got a Trans Am and a Camaro kit, as well as a power mods kit and the 35th LE Past/Present body kits.
Fun little cars. When you put the 28k motor and the tall drive gears in, those little buggers are hard to control on a waxed hardwood floor. Posted by 35TH ED/ed (Member # 1709) on :
Well I went over to the dark side . Took back the SS and got the Silver Bird .
ALso picked up the Yenko . Had the 35th already.

They are indeed hard to control! I need a lowering kit and subframe connectors for mine. When I make a hard turn it rolls over...hmmm...come to think of it, a role cage would be nice. Posted by GETGONE (Member # 2086) on :

How you planning on modding it? Cutting the top off or just gluing some black fabric over the top to make it look like a vert? I picked up a NBM SS and the LE/67 SS body kit. They still had another one and several blue and white cars. They also had 2 of the Yenko/Mopar body kits. I gotta find some wider tires. The rims stick out past the tires.

Picked up the 35th LE kit at the Shack by my office last night. Last one they had left. Now I need to get some headers for this thing.

Wade,I will attempt to cut the roof off with my air powered saw or maybe with a die grinder.I was going to use a piece of plastic from the package the car came in and paint it black with a hole for the antenna.I will take pictures of the process.If I screw up the car,I have 2 more 35th LE bodies to try.Maybe I will practice on one of the 1967 SS bodies 1st.Why don't anyone make 35th LE vert stuff? Posted by MMMM_ERT (Member # 1599) on :
Oooohhh.....gonna have to got to RS today and grab me one. Posted by HTWLSS (Member # 117) on :
I went to R.S. a couple of days ago and picked up the blue and white SS starter kits, the Yenko/Mopar 2F2F cars, the engine upgrade kit, the track, the cones AND printed off some coupons from http://www.radioshack.com for a FREE Sponge Bob body and another for a free chrome-looking import body (good for practicing with so my SS bodies don't get scratched).
I'll have to hit one of the other dozen Radio Shacks in our area to locate the 35th/67 body kit.
