This thread makes me want to build the crappiest yet still fully functional RC10 out of the worst spares I have. Hmm...

My Worlds Car re-re runner. Swapped out the hubs to run the original wheels. For street/yard use, I run Tamiya Fast Attack rear tires and worn out front ribs. Dirt, I have some old school Proline knobby front tires and re-re rear knobby tires. I also have a pair of Tamiya Grasshopper sand paddles for the sand.
This car runs a Hobbywing 1060 esc and a Tamiya Sport Tuned motor. It's a fun car to run.

Meet "the Rat", my active duty cadillac RC10 
Run hard in the dirt weekly, as it was meant to.
Reedy 4900kv, stealth tranny w carbide diff balls. 3 years of bashing by the river and counting.
It came with the "roll bar", it has saved the shock tower a couple times I bet.
Hard hit dislodged the ESC today, natch.

That's great! I like the roll bar idea.

Current bashing mode: (Going well)
Stock Cadillac front end with anti-roll bar, but with later in-line axles.
JConcepts wheels/Louise tyres. Ball-raced.
Stock Cadillac rear end with B5 shocks.
Period Futaba steering servo.
Contemporary Absima CR2S.V2 transmitter & R3FS receiver.
Period Novak Rooster ESC.
VP Racing 6-cell 3300mAh Nimh battery pack.
Period Reedy Pulsr R 13-turn motor running a 19T pinion on stock 6-gear transmission.
Must get some bodywork/gear cover sorted before some proper dirt work.

Nice polished outside, anno'd inside tub. Maybe you "10 Heads" do that all the time. Ain't never seen that particular treatment.

It's how it came to me.
It had a hard previous life and the owner before me obviously took a polishing wheel to it to relieve some of the scratching and did the whole underside.
I quite like it.... I'm tempted to do a full polish version, including the shocks.

Building yet another RC10T Buggy. This one will be for backyard, field, non-track use. Picked up a pile of parts yesterday, and using that, plus my parts stash, we'll see what I end up with.

Here's my recently completed Horizon Hobby TQ10. It's not pretty enough to be a shelf queen, so it's been around the driveway a few times. It has B4 wheel conversions on it, a brushed Reedy esc from a SC10, and a vintage Associated stock motor. I was surprised at how quick it is! As long as I don't break the chassis, I'm good to go!

It's nice to see the drivers, since most threads are on shelf queens.
