RC10 UK TO AUSTRALIA

Post by GJW »

lad's just picked up this brand new 6 gear from the uk, it's exactly what i wanted an unblemished example built to a high standard. i have only had a handful of these gold pan's and i am always disappointed in the way they have been assembled eg scratched shock cap's, rough transmission, plier marks etc as to be expected i guess from a young hobbyist from back in the day. anyway the buggy came with very nice nickel plated proline outer rim's and i added a green label edinger reedy modified, electronic's soon to come. the box is just superb the best i own by far even the decals on the side are very shiny :P hope you all like the buggy as much as i do :D

Absolutely beautiful car, Congratulations!

You weren't kidding, the box, car and everything you have done here shows a pristine setup. I am so happy that you were able to find a great quality NIB RC10 car kit and built it to excellent standards.

Congrats.

thanks ruffy, i certainly think it's worth waiting for the right car to show up, as you know! so many thrown together so called new built's out there. i was very picky this time and asked for many photo's of all the item's in the listing. just have to grab a battery tray,wing and add a few little things and that's that. ill find an edinger one day :wink:

the hotlap rims are plastic!

thanks for all your kind word's fellas 8)

This thread took an odd turn ... why wouldn't you hold onto the pristine one you've got until you *know* that you have the "very rare buggy" that you want even more? Unless you absolutely need to have the cash on-hand to make it happen.

Whatever, it's none of my business, but "bird in the hand", y'all ...

Looks awesome in the pics. Whoever picks that up is in for a treat!
