My 91 RC10 Worlds Replica

Post by Welshy40 »

Ok, Almost done, just missing the steering ball joints and rod but and quite happy with how its come out, and yes the receiver is wrong but liked what another team driver did on his so copied that until I discovered what receiver was used and am also looking for that. Ive even managed to get hold of original rear wishbones and will be adding later on when I find time. KO was from Kevin Moore, motor was prepared by Mike Reedy himself

Also added a few of my cars all together. See if you can correctly name them.

:shock: I wish I hadn't seen this! I'm still trying to convince myself not to do one of these builds, must resist!

Looks amazing, love the vintage Txs as well!

Who did the paint? And where are the decals from?

Cheers, one of my Sanwa txs is the first converted to 2.4. Ive got five or six of them.

Telboy from Oople painted it, great guy and worth the wait.

Decals from the chap that made the decals for the original first proto on here, infos on there somewhere but unfortunately forgotton his name, sorry. Just found his details, his name is Louis and have PMd you with his email address.

NICE build!

With all the NIX and Quadra builds going on I was thinking if it is possible / feasible to try and build a "quadra-ish" car off of the the narrow cut RPM style chassis, and match the front to that width.

Since a narrow nose has already been done in '91 I don't see why not....

hmmmm projects

Congrats on the magazine article James, your Detroit NIX91 looks great! How did you get away with not having an embarrassing mug shot of yourself printed in the mag :wink:
