I was piddling in garage this afternoon and had an idea. I wrapped the motor plate in paper towels then sprayed with carb and choke cleaner letting it soak for about ten minutes. The powder coat "wiped" off easily with a flat screwdriver. It was orange powder coat (see first post.)
I plan on using this car as a vintage up and down the street beater-tires will "adjust" in due course. Would appreciate it if you guys could suggest the best motor from my small collection for this car. Appreciate the feedback.

First i had to say is that it's not a resto project.
When i started racing in 90's i got a RC10 team car issue that i really loved, but i was dreaming of something else... so about 20years after i started to do build this car:
picked up a rpm black shorty bumper . So I switched bodies and tires on my stealth graphite. I have the box art body on my graphite six gear.

Hi rctenracer, Im the one who bought the 6 gear off ebay from you. Sorry about the transaction taking a bit longer than it should have. Didn't realize you were on here.

Stealth Fighter was my race body back in the day, the tight fit makes it really nice when using velcro to mount the body. Plus no dirt gets inside the tub. I would definately buy one if someone reproed these... hint hint mrlexan :wink: :D

if you are finding that there is a bind every rotation, I would think it's the top...
