decided to build the custom gold skull machine. (RC10L)

[durb69]

I need to make a few more parts out of g10 fiberglass in gold. Might make some aluminum parts and get them gold anodized. Ive been thinking about setting up my own anodizing station. I might design some custom front end suspension at some point as well. But for now i will make the few pieces i need out of g10 and die the associated white parts gold and see what they look like. I think i will put chrome parma wheels on it. I wish i could find gold tires (rims) for it. Some technacraft rims would be sick but i cant afford those.

Didn't bolink have gold wheels on some of theirs? Probably rare tho

[durb69]

I have noo clue. I'm not really up to speed on the vintage stuff. Learning as i go

[klavy69]

actually a set of Jakes wheels re-anno'd gold would look great on it. If not re-anno'd maybe shodog's trick with the tamiya gold transluscent paint on the centers to make them look like tecnacrafts

Looks good so far.

Yes Bolink had a Gold Eliminator 10 edtion that came with gold wheels. By the way that chassis looks Great very cool!!!!!!!

Hah! I like it! Wish I had something more relevant to add, but I do like it.

I think you went a little overboard on the skull & crossbones motif but otherwise its pretty cool.

I can agree to that. I usually add one custom piece with skulls to each one of my vehicles so it never looks over done. but this time i figured i would make all the pieces for a vehicle and make a one off custom machine. I didnt think about the over board effect it would have. but im just going to roll with it lol. it will be fun to make it either way

I'm liking that Those bits would look good on my 10L.

What parts do you like the most?

Them all Although none of them would suit my 10L particularly well as it's graphite with the active caster front end. I do like the look of the aluminium nerf bars in one of your other threads though, they'd look cool on mine.

I think the whole thing looks awesome! Love the skull prints all over the chassis. I would go for a set of aluminum nerf bars too if you decided to make a run. Can't wait to start on my 10L. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread.

If i do end up making a run of those i will send you a PM or post it in the B/S/T section under ebay.

thanks for the comment guys. I enjoy messing with this stuff on the side. a few months ago i would have had this project finished inside of a week or less but the sun comes out in the summer and i spend all my time playing outside instead of inside lol. This thread might be slow but will def. be updated as i go.

I love it it looks cool, are the bone battery slots large enough to hold the batterys?
