Things you find painted,and what looked like under it!!!!!
I bought a 10T on ebay over a year ago chassis was painted white,towers were purple and the rear bulkhead was blue and front bulkhead was blue.I soaked the parts to remove the paint and just about every part was in mint condition.The chassis is what shocked me most,only a few spots the annodizing scuffed off but looks like shelf ware not running it ware.Rear bulkhead is a black worlds one.Everything looks great well worth the wait and scrub downs they got several times.Sometimes the uglies turn out to be the grandprizes lol.DON

Re: Things you find painted,and what looked like under it!!!
after stripping with some brake fluid... a worlds car nose plate in good condition. it was attached to a thrashed painted chassis. i was planning on making it a runner, luckily never did. was sitting around one day looking at stuff and said... heeeey this noseplate doesn't look like the others... its got an angle to it?? did some research found out what it was. i wanted to see what was under the paint.
