Slotcarrod's Worlds Car

Got this used Worlds RC10 a few years ago from a friend and did a resto on it. Was saved from his flooded basement, all the manuals and catalogs are all still stuck together but the box was fine. The car was gently used and little rusty. It has been restored with mostly new parts. All but the chassis, that still has a few scratches but nothing major that a Sharpi could not cover!

Got this body from Mr Lexan, I know it's missing the scoop but It's what I could find ok and I don't care that much! Then my good buddy Anthony (Vintage AE) did up this sweet box art paint job for it! Thanks Anthony! (He presented it to me on my birth day! What a great day and friend! :mrgreen: )

Then I put all the box art decals I could find on it ! Brian Kinwald had different decals on the original Worlds Car that was raced. I chose to do mine as close to box art as I can! I made the white meat ball number plates with an Olfa circle cutter and 10T numbers! T3 numbers would be better as they have the "Team Associated" across the "one" but I don't have enough! This will do fine!

Thanks scr8p I was trying to remember who was doing them! 8) However I think VAE and I are going to get a vinyl cutter of our own, but if it does not pan out I will keep pbr allstar in mind! Still waiting for the black Yokomo sheet off of eBay out of the UK! He sent me a blue one. On my order I said I wanted black! :roll: Oh well, mistakes happen!

No one wants to know why I need two cars??? :|
