Recycling an old RC10

Post by RedScampi »

Recently I scored several vehicles in a group buy including two rc10 buggies. One of them was nearly mint with a few issues that needed to be addressed. The other one was all decked out 80's style and had been run hard over it's life. I decided that I liked the pink theme because we all used to dye our rc10 parts weird colors and it kind of brings me back to that time. It also gave me a convenient way to re-use some otherwise useless parts and create a unique (these days) car in the process. Anyway, here she is in before and after pics, not quite finished yet. Hope you like it.

Thanks! I just didn't want to go black, everyone does that. I have an idea for a paint scheme that'll set this off nicely and keep some of the flavor from the original car.
