I measured the wrong decals. The correct size I need is approximately 23mm high x 28mm wide for a stack of 3.

I took a larger picture of the Auto 8 issue, if it can help.

That does help! Thank you Kenooze for posting that up!

I wanted to ask if anyone had the capability of blowing up some of the pictures and making them more clear? Not sure if this is possible?

Now with that blown up, I can see there is a Kimbrough decal just in front of the receiver that I could not see before! :mrgreen:

Also wanted ask if anyone has some orange foam that is used in front of the battery? I had some before I got this car and threw it out for some unknown reason when I was cleaning up some RC stuff a while back. Anyone know where it came from?

There have been questions about the front wheels. It appears to me that the front wheels are smaller than the back. The rears are 2.2. Eustace Moore says the front wheels were the MIP standard 4-10 kit wheels. The general consensus here is that the wheels are not MIP. I took a picture of the Proline 2.0 - 2.15 wheels on the car to see how close to the hubs/knuckles they are. I then took a picture of a B4 2.2 wheel on there. In the first photo of the car at the race, the front wheels appear to be very close to the hubs. What do you guys think? Added another pic at the bottom that shows clearance.

The outer lip is probably cut off which makes it look smaller. Kinwald, Masami, and I'm sure others did the same.

Look at Cedric's Kinwald rc10 replica from the that race.

Thanks to Rob (littleVette), I now have the correct early MIP rear axles. I also stuck on the Kimbrough decal and an RC10 decal on the side of the chassis. I cannot see this side of the chassis in race coverage, but the decal was on it when I got it.
