Hey, what's wrong with pink & purple?
Pink and purple are great colors. I just ain't secure enough in my manhood to use them
He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. His parents are probably idiots too.

That was the thought. I will be milling them out of 1/4" aluminum rod, i'll drill and tap them with 4/40 threads then polish them up and spray them with the red clear. They will be nice little trick additions
I have some red (hot trick maybe?) chassis stiffeners if you are interested. I think they have one extra set of holes in them. Other than that, they are perfect. You may have to drill them to make them fit though.

your gonna be dying the suspension parts black? you might already know this, but make sure you trim out the sides of the bulkhead before you do. just a heads up.

lookin' good, by the way.
I did a test fit and it didn't need any trimming. I saw on the instructions that you need to but the RPM bulkhead bolted right up.

Thanks for the offer but I have some of those already. I have them slated for an SRB project

As for the parts, I am going to do them in red.
worlds car upper plate mounts to the top of the bulkhead, not the sides like the team chassis. however, you may have to shave a little bit off the bottom of your shock tower to make room for the upper plate.
Scr8p, you were right, I needed to do some judicious trimming on the rear bulkhead so that the ream arms will have free suspension movement.
I got all the plastic dyed up today.
And now I've started to assemble the chassis.
As anyone who has done a scratch built buggy knows, you run into all kinds of road blocks. The Tecnacraft titanium tunrbuckles I have are for the RC10 but these arms are wider than normal so the turnbuckles are too narrow to use with the stock ball ends. What I plan to do is to pick up some dubro ball ends which are longer than the stock ones this will bridge the gap I have.

I'm in the middle of building a composite craft/RPM worlds buggy and trying to figure out the best body to use on it. It looks like the ultramolded chassi preference is a losi xx body, but I haven't seen if there is something recommended for the...

Possibly. I've got other stuff I want to pick up that is higher priority right now.
since i have so many used parts iam going to use em on this build PLUS been spending a lot of money lately :( so i know it wont be 100% correct build so no stupid comments please :lol: only new parts will be the rear hub carriers by shapeways,...

ok i never liked how the rear end of this car came out was too narrow so i changed the rear wheels to yokomo wheels and it widened the rear. now it looks better for sure! unnamed.jpg unnamed (5).jpg unnamed (6).jpg
Here we go again. I've had this NIP Composite Craft Worlds RC10 chassis for a few years. I was torn between building it vintage or modern. Since my first CC RC10 is mostly vintage with some modern touches, I wanted to stick true to one direction on...

I don’t know man I’m thinking that mini bumper has had that header card since day one…. Not seeing any other staple holes in it. The true tell will be if there’s more holes in the bag :D
I looked at it closely. The header card and staple appear...
A all new complete RC10 Composite Craft / RPM World 1991 , I had an Hydradrive and the Yokomo wheel adapter 8)
On this one I use a Houge Enterprise steering system !
