I picked this car up recently. Been wanting a graphite chassis RC10 for a while now and finally got one. This is how it came.... and it does need a little attention.

Will tear it down and give it a good clean and once over.... more to come.

I will be watching this one. The Graphite car was the first RC10 I bought, mine wasn't team car though. I would like get one to add to my collection also.

Got it all cleaned up as best as I could. Thought it turned out good.
Later made some progress on the rebuild....

This is where I am at this time.

I have been able to work on this car a little more. Here are some pictures showing my progress.

I know that some are tiring of the modernizations of these platforms, but I have found that these projects have really brought me back into this hobby with some different invigoration.

This buggy still needs some tweaking here and there, but it is close to final. Can't wait to hit the track with it now.

I don't see anything wrong with upgrades you have done. Nice car!

Looks sweet! I realize you intend this as a competition machieene. But how was the underside and did you treat it in any way? Like the brits say it looks the business especially with that white body.

Are those cut down associated turnbuckles?

No, they are not cut down, but they are associated FT turnbuckles. 1.30" on the front with a 1.65" in the rear.

Looks great!

Good looking runner!
