wonder why the fing mip steering didnt fit. got it off ebay said it was off a rc10. looks like its going back on ebay since i dont need it and the stock steering is going back on

i put the rc10t mip steering in the trade sec for a rc10 mip steering. thanks

I would like to see the bottom of that chassis before you desecrate it

lol its pretty clean but i have better. i have 5 other early rc10 edingers it was time, one was gonna get wacked!

plus its only 4 small holes that no one can see, not like an adding wings and drilling out the sides of the chassis or putting more holes to make it lighter

This will be a great project, I'll be following along!

I've been trying to find a modified body like that for quite some time. I had the Bolink Probe body on my Eliminator 10 back in the day. Hmm.... that sounds like another project to tackle.

got the body mounted hard to tell but the back corner of the body is kinda banged up, o well it is a dirt oval body lol it will look like it hit the wall still waiting on the CORRECT mip steering and i ordered the re-issue rc10 rear tires since i do like the look.

This going to look pretty cool when you get it done. Does the body tilt from side to side at all with only one in the center back? It looks like it would be moving all over the place.

not when its sitting on the shelf the way the body mounts on the front its nice and tight so the body really doesnt move at all. the trim lines didnt match up to the rc10 chassis so had to do some extra cutting to fit around the frt shock tower.

lol, then it should be fine then.

to keep it orginal i used a pair of early edinger spring cups i had mounted on one of my other cars since it wasnt a orginal early edinger car. they were dyed purple at one time so i painted them flat white.

You have any idea how valuable that body was? That was the first NIP one to come up in the 10 years I've been doing this-
