Sneak Peak of my 6010 Cadilac
Sneak Peak of my 6010 Cadilac
Picked this up on ebay and decided to restore it. All the nylon was dyed red so to even out the color I went with black. I decided to put on my Technicraft wheels that I bought back in the day. Now I'm just waiting for some front shocks as the ones that came with the car were no good and a new body. Then I'll give it a final cleaning, test run and then retire it to the shelf.
The before, was too excited to start the rebuild that I didn't take a lot of before shots but this thing was in need of a lot of attention.
Nearing finish

Cool. Do you have any close ups of the graphics on that body? Looks like a warrior with a wolf or a dragon or something. The monitor on this work computer kinda sucks though so I may be way off.

Re: Sneak Peak of my 6010 Cadilac
I'm just curious. Reminds me of something you'd see on the side of a van in the late 70's early 80's. I was just wondering if it was painted or just decals or something. Not something you see everyday.bxlt wrote:I can take some, I am not a fan of that body but if someone likes it I would be more then happy to part with itTHEYTOOKMYTHUMB wrote:Cool.

Yeah it has a total 70's van vibe to it. I haven't really looked at it much because its really not my style but I think its a print out that they put under the lexan then a coat of paint to protect/secure it.THEYTOOKMYTHUMB wrote: I'm just curious.

I will get a couple of pictures up tomorrow. It is one of the things I like about collecting cars is the bodies, they can really be time capsules of when the car was built and used, and I like to keep the original body of the cars I get but this one is just too much for me

Can't wait to see it. I love things that are awesomely bad. I've created a few things (R/C and otherwise) in my day that could easily fall into that category.
