Another RC10 gold pan hybrid build, w/ Rough Rider body

Post by pastimesteve »

Hi guys -

This A-stamp chassis has been sitting around for a while. I think I bought it from rctenracer. Anyway, I thought I should do something with it, so I'm building a runner with it featuring hex axles all around, RC4WD tires, Gear Head aluminum wheels, a Wild Willy driver head and a lexan Rough Rider/Buggy Champ body from ebay. I've added a SC10RS gear diff, but don't worry, I did not cut the chassis! The most blasphemous thing I did was modify the rear bulkhead.

I need to add the mechanicals, but this is close to being finished. I'll probably start out with a Reedy 17t brushed motor.

I dig it!!! I love the tires, doin the same with the BroncoBuggy, but need some 1.55 wheels for it before I can complete the look.

What tires are those? I was thinking of doing this with 1.55 growlers in the rear and a thinner tire in the font.

I love the combination of that gorgeous livery with the charcature-like oversized head and tires/wheels.
By the way: The early prototype of the rc10 used a Rough Rider body too.
