The World is Orange!
Okay... So I have 12 completed cars... I will have more complete pics later....
I know they are not out of box perfect, but it is how I have them. thanks for looking!
I bought this car on eBay in 2005 exactly as it sits. It has been on the shelf since. It was the car that got me re-aquainted with cars from the past... It is new and it came with the box. It is not perfect, but I left it as it sits because... Well I don't know why... I'm going to paint a new body for it eventually to make it more mine. Back in the day, I had bought a car just like this. In those days, I went racing and then at night, I went partying... Rarely if ever did I leave my R/C stuff in my car, but one night, I did and well... It wasn't there the next day the one time I did. That was late 1989, early 1990.. So anyway, in 2005, I finally replaced that car... And here it is:
Update to above car^^:
Late Edition Graphite Team Car (AKA: Graphite Worlds Car) Chassis not perfect, had to fill a couple holes:
Both together:
This next car is a team car that I started building piece by piece about 3 years ago... Finally got it finished a few weeks ago.
A replica of a Team Car I had back in the early 90's... Wish I had never sold that car, but it is what it is. Haven't sourced the turnbuckles I had on it yet, but will eventually change those and paint the body the way I had it. :
This is a car I bought from a friend the night before I was leaving for the 1994 NM State Offroad Champs. It was actually and RC10T that I converted to an RC10 using an RPM front end conversion and a standard rear end. I built it the night before qualifying started. I ended up qualifying 2nd and won 2wd Modified with it. Yep, i have been carrying this car around for a while... It even still has the body on it that I used for that race... Anyway, 3 years ago I converted it to an Old is New car. Here it is, (This car is currently being transformed back into its original status):
RC10.1 (Reggie Runner):
RC10.2 - Car with extended chassis, Wheelbase/Width to match B4.2 (Close) and equipped with hex wheel adapers and Big Bore Shocks. (Runner)
My B4.2, Equipped with a Jconcepts +8 Finnisher Body, and LMR Wing, JC Aluminum wing mounts and a shorty pack using a SC10 Battery foam:
C4.2 Centro:
Well thats my huge collection for now,

Re: The World is Orange!
The JConcepts BJ4's:
JConcepts BJ4WE. This was given to me from Jason Rouna. The body isn't exactly like box, but is a true Rouna body. I am going to have him sign this car next week. Still need to paint the wing and get tires. (Special thanks to Jason Rouna):

Re: The World is Orange!
Misc. odds and ends:
I worked for a hobby shop called Albuquerque Hobby. Anyway we had a small carpet track in the back and when we had our grand opening in 2001, we brought Matt out. We set him up with a car and the works for our grand opening carpet race. This is the body I painted for it and you can see he signed it. I'm not too sure, this is one of the only times he ever raced 12th scale onroad... When he did this, it was his first time racing 12th scale. As you can see it says "Thanks for the onroad experience"... I quit that store, but when the place closed, I had stopped by to talk to a friend there... In the ruble of stuff they were throwing away, I saw this and took it home. I have had it since... Wish i had the car that was under it also. Hope to find another car to put under this body one day. SSPaintworks was the painting name I used to paint bodies for people.

Re: The World is Orange!
The RC10B2's
Original Box rebuild. Bought this car off ebay with box and was quite dirty but little wear on it. Replaced the chassis and put a new body on it. Still have the electronics that came with it and will eventually put those back in it.
RC10B2 with short option chassis new build. Still on the hunt for a body! (More pictures to come):
The Prototype RC10B2. I bought this car from a member here. Cannot remember who (Sorry). When I received it, it had a short chassis on it. I changed the chassis out with a NIP standard graphite chassis and freshened up some things on it. Also it is slowly progressing into a Matt Francis Worlds Winner Replica so it has 1.02 shock bodies with .71 shafts up front. It is not completed yet but is getting close.
All three together:
