Great build. GLWTS

Have a late happy birthday!

The future of space exploration may well be led by China, seeing as they have a lot of the wealth these days.

I've just seen these guys doing what I suggested a while ago on this thread... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Vintage-Wrap-Decal-Associated-Reedy-Sonic-540-Mach-2-21-5-Brushless-Motor-ASC231-/390675630388?pt=Radio_Control_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5af6150934 Add a gold anodised end bell and it'll lo...

Feel free to take the idea. I won't be using it as I have other plans. I'd love to see someone pull it off :) Funnily enough back in the day I had no idea the RC10 was actually gold! All the UK adverts were in black and white. I still have some of those original ads in a folder actually. It was a su...

Lets hope the mustang stays retro. Every time they tried to go modern, since phase two onwards, it ended up being utterly hideous.

Besides, you cannot get a Ford with an LS so I am out

I think that is ready to be used as a battering ram now!

I may try something a little more subtle.

We are getting this in the UK in RHD. No doubt the dealers will double the price on the way as usual, so you can keep them!

I ordered two versions of AEs solution to this - the alloy and plastic brackets as used in GT variants. I'll have a play with those and see which is best, or make something better.

How about a box art car but done in shades of black, white and grey, to mimic the look of the original magazine adverts (when printed in b&w). You could even use metallics, ie gunmetal, silver etc. Might be a cool experiment. Maybe even anodise the chassis to match the whole monotone look.

I'll be watching this with interest. I had one as my first car. If you can get it to handle at all I will be impressed.

That is one hell of a damn fine RC10. You Sir have great taste.

Even 3mm won't flex in normal use. 4mm is total overkill. I doubt nose tubes will be required. This is a world away from the wobbly alloy tub.

I did post above showing where I thought the white and yellow body sections met. But I made a mistake. Taking into account where the USA flag is, I think the sketch posted up earlier is correct.
