All Andy's bodies came signed like that.

Re: Shodog's RC10T build
I haven't did much on this project. Although I was able to get some black arms in.

Re: Shodog's RC10T build
tonight I had a little bit of time so I started to build this truck. I bought a set of black rpm arms and planned to use them until i saw these beauties on epay. It's a set new era aluminum arms and I polished a few days ago They look like a piece of jewelry

Here it is so far

Re: Shodog's RC10T build
What if i made the chassis standoffs from aluminum and stripped the shock bodies and polished them. would that get the balance right?badhoopty wrote:pretty nice jim.
i'm on the fence with the alloy arms... imho they make me either want to see them black or see more chromie stuff elsewhere.

Re: Shodog's RC10T build
The rims you showed will help tie the aluminum arms in as well. Looks Great!

Re: Shodog's RC10T build
Rough rider redo is on hold right now. when I first had the parts annodized, I mistakenly had them annodize a set of the short fronst suspension tubes. When I recently had my RC10 parts done, I included a set of long tubes but ended up breaking the middle tube while polishing it. So I'm waiting to meet up with a local member to do some horsetrading on some parts so I can get a center annodized in red.Dr. Robotnik wrote: BTW whatever happened to the Rough Rider re-do?

Re: Shodog's RC10T build
Your right the rims will tie it more together. I'm still debating whether to use the mesh wheels or modify my last set of tecnacrafts to fit an RC10Tphilk wrote:The rims you showed will help tie the aluminum arms in as well. Looks Great!

Dude, you got the magic. What ever you do will snap, crackle and pop.
You are the man...
That does sound good with the alum stand-offs and polished shocks.

He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. His parents are probably idiots too.
