RC10 Volkswagen

G'day guys
We have a vintage meet coming up in April, so I thought that I would give my RC10 VW a freshen up. I had this shell on one of my sand scorchers but it has been repaired many times, so when I finally got a new shell for the SS, this shell had the arches cut down for guard clearance, cut out the window glass & added window netting, added a NOS bottle on the back & a tamiya Wild One drivers head. it looks a lot better than a lexan shell. I also made a front nudge bar for a bit of nose protection, there also a roll cage inside the car, it looks cool but also helps support the body in the event of a roll over.
I've also adjusted the suspension so that it sits lower which has helped with the handling.
hopefully I can meet up with Bormac at the track soon so he can drive it for me & give me his thoughts on the handling.
hope u like the pics
regards
