Stormtrooper rc10t

Post by **86NESKid** » Wed Dec 21, 2011 1:02 pm

So i am in the process of restoring a bunch of my stuff(had three rc10s and 3 rc10ts buried for 20 years), working on restoring my rc10t and rc10 graphite team car to shelf queens. In the meantime been working on the other two rc10ts.
here is one i have completely redone with all RPM parts to look like a stormtrooper vehicle or something lol
All rpm parts throughout
let me know what you think. gonna have the braces and motor plate powdered white.

and then i think i am going to find a way to add all these rom parts also
problem is they are all off white and different shades so may have to go black with these as well
once you go black you can't go back tho......hmmmm?

you know i am not sure, i had them in a box from some stuff i bought about 10 yrs ago when i was going to get back into the hobby, but only did for a few months and back in the boxes they went
they are super smooth, gotta be hpi or traxxass i think

I am trying to find an old RPM gear cover in black for this in great shape
hard to find, if anyone has one they want to part with?

That looks great! What have you got planned for the body?

I'll buy the white rpm center link off you so you don't have to dye it lol. You can easily find black ones on ebay. Nice truck though!

I really like the white chassis and the parts you chose to go along with it. Is this one a shelfer or a runner?

oops, shelfer it is, I forgot after the RC porn photos
