A chassis like that deserves old school parts.

I have never been able to find a set of those shock bodies but if I had a set they would definitely be on this build.

I would be stoked to get a set of those for this build. I thought about powder coating a set of associated bodies black.

A bunch of what? Never seen any MIP shock bodies in person

Don't go for powder coating but rather for anodising as the powder is thick and would ruin functionality. I did this with a set of re-re shocks:

Those look good! I haven't been able to find anyone locally that will do anodizing in my area.

Are you on Facebook? If so hit up Carolina Custom Anodizing. A lot of people swear by them on the Facebook groups..

Hey guys,
New to the board and the RC10 but not new to RC. I am heavily involved in racing 1/10 and 1/8 offroad so I do bring a little bit of knowledge from there. That being said, I was born in 1985 and the RC10 is still pretty new to me. I am...

Yea I was thinking about it. Just not totally sure I wanted to go that route.
Was thinking of possibly trimming/drilling the front of the Andy's chassis for truck components. Not sure if cutting on that chassis would be a good idea though. Could...

Thanks for the reply JOHNBOY74 but for a while there DHAWK was selling them in silver. I contacted him but he was out. I was hoping someone on the board might have one in silver. I'd hate to try and get all the gold ano out of the nooks and cranny's...

That is an awesome car! The Fusion carbon fiber chassis is the unicorn of RC10 parts. I was lucky enough to find one of those tubs but it’s so rare I haven’t built anything with it yet

Man carbon fiber is so sweet. Being in the race car biz it seems like these carbon fiber pans would be fairly easy to redo.
