Turned out absolutely awesome!!! I do have to admit that painting the body on the outside really makes the paint pop, super glossy!

Are those Scorpion or Optima re-re tires? They look super wide and aggressive on those rims. Mean and nasty!

Hi, my name is Matt, I heard about this group from Scale Builders Guild on youtube. I have a couple vintage projects going and came looking for info on the rc10.

No, wish I had

I still have mine - one of Jim Deiter's cars - in fact it has the same orange wheels as yours. Do you happen to have any pics you can share? :mrgreen: Did or do you know Dieter? I ran at a couple of his local tracks in the Joliet area as a kid, and was always in awe of his driving and his cars. Him...

There has been a bit of recent resurgence of Dominator IV cars on eBay and it got me to thinking... 1. All the early ads for the Dominator in ~'89 had yellow plastic.
