RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

hello, here is my "custom" A&L RC10. I made some of the parts (front and rear shock struts, tranny plate, motor guard) because I don't want any black part on it.





I put a protech body on it because it has a high roof (A&L rear shock tower is very long).





Hope you like it

looks awesome, nice polishing work, looks great

Thanks,polishing was the only way to go as a lot of parts are coming from this graphite

That's a real nice job ra272 , it's almost the polar opposite to my all black version, you're going to have to do something about those nasty black tyres though

thanks, this morning I saw some white Tamiya tires on the bay...but they are absolutely ugly, so my "endive car" will keep his nasty black tires

Looks Fantastic!

FRP G10 rules

What did you use to cut the G10?

Man, That thing looks nice. You could always use a sharpie to color your tires. I know a few guys on here are masters with a sharpie

I know what I am doing with all my scratches up shocks now.

I'm dental prothesist, I used my professionnal "dremel" with 0.2mmx33mm reinforced disc, my hands and lot of time.

oh man, hope that patients dont taste the epoxy too bad if its the same dremel you used to work on people

He makes prosthetics, false teeth.

If I ever see a dentist coming at me with a dremel and a cutting wheel, I am running like hell

i think my dentist bought his equipment at a german garage sale in the mid 1940's lol. i always look at his dremel bits and am like "damn i need that one to trim the edge of my chassis lol, looks like it would do the job" haha.. when his machine spins up it sounds like a jet engine winding up for take-off lol, cheap bastard lol. does a good job at least.
