Orange's RC10T Project...

Post by Orange »

Okay, so yet another project in the works... I have pieced this one together with parts. Still need a couple (Listed)...

I picked up the truck about a year ago and haven't done anything with it till now. But decided while I am waiting for parts and what not for other builds, would start this one... might as well join the "In progress" club right? Haha...

Still Need to get:

New White front bumper
New Body
New white 87 tooth spur gear (Have old one for now)
New ball cups (LOL & Have old ones for now will do)
New front arms (Just noticed they have had a screw put all the way through)

Here is a couple of teaser pictures:

I think this is going to get some titanium turnbuckles... I keep thinking as I'm building it, "How would you build this thing if you were just opening up a kit?" Well, the answer to that, I would throw the stock turnbuckles in the trash and put titanium on it, along with a graphite transmission brace and anything else that is cool.... So there will be some changes coming, :)

That is one clean looking build. I'm looking for the same rear tires you have there. Where did you find them? Any leads your willing to share?

Thanks,
Quik

Do you remember my dalmation themed yellow chassis truck? It was like the moo, except with dalmation spots.. Thinking about doing something like that again... Except going to put orange in it somehow... If I could find a Yellow chassis, I could re-create my truck all together, :)
