Hi all This is my first RC10-project and I posted it a while back as I got it. Now I´ve painted the body and was looking for something different and still "vintage-looking" so I chose Copper and flat-black. The black is painted on the outside and I kind of like the contrast between the copper and the black. It also has mirrors from the Alfa Romeo Giulia (Tamiya), alu-rims and a few more things to come. This will probably take a while to finish and although I almost found all the missing parts, there´s still a few small things that I need. This is todays stand and I hope You´ll like it.

Hi Bent
No, I didn´t protect it with anything exept that I sanded the lexan very carefully and it seems that the black colour sticks very good on the lexan.
I don´t think I will run this one and I don´t know if I would recommend the outside-painting on a runner, but as a...what did You say..." Trailer Queen" it will do:) Thx a lot
Hello, Me personally I love painting the out side of a body exspecially with my dirt oval cars. I do 1 color on the inside and do the design and such on the out side. I do ot so that when it gets bumped scuffed and dinged I can take the heat gun to it and give it a bit of realism. But I only do this with new mas production bodys.
You run me in the grass imma run you in the wall, drive like a racer not a flippin idiot
Hello All. I've had an interest in vintage RC10s ever since I remember reading about the worlds and RC10T kits in the magazines as a kid. I figured now is a good time to get into it with the ReRes out. I just traced a TC4 for what you see in the...

I won an auction for some front end parts for the second car. Once I have them in I'll be doing a cleanup of all of the plastics.
So, this was my first rear RC, bought with a lot of hard-earned lawn mowing/snow shoveling/pet sitting money back in '94 when I was 12. I ran it until the MSC burned up, then it got shelved. I got back into RC when I was 19, but I was into nitro...

Hard on my kits sounds like an understatement.
Well, I prefer to look at it as most manufacturers just not building them tough enough :wink:
It's one reason I won't waste my time with Traxxas, though. Save for the Revo, their stuff breaks if I...

Hey guys, I picked up my first Gold pan car. It's a 6-gear car with a complete spare rebuilt transmission. The guy I bought it from is pretty knowledgeable in them and rebuilt the diff and shocks, replaced the ball cups, and painted the dogbones...

The B4 springs are the same as the originals, just the black springs can be a little tricky to find.
Also I'm not sure if the stock turnbuckles will work with the longer arms, they might be a little short but I'm not positive.
Owned since new, going to be restored..... someday. :)

Yeah, one was anodized in a separate batch than the other. The same question has been raised on the anodize tint grade to associated, and as far as I can recall, there was no intention on the shade of gold. The color simply just differed depending...
Finally got the ol RC10 gold pan running last night and a couple issues arose. First, I noticed immediately that at about half throttle the gears or either the motor made a screaming noise from time to time like there was vibration or either it...

Diff lube is for the ball differential either in the stealth trans, or the original 6 gear outer hub/spur assembly
