This was the car I did that with.
It was a TRC Pro10, which was one of the first 1/10th scale carpet/pan cars to really take a hold of the mainstream market for 1/10th scale. This car, the Associated 10L, Delta Villain, and a handful of others were the cars to have in the late 80s.
I ran my car with an Andy's Jaguar XJR GTP body, with the separate rear wing. I have a photo of the original car somewhere, that I'm trying to find to scan for this thread.
This one, was the lucky find I had early last week that included the heavily modified RC10 as well as the bonus Kyosho Fantom. I bought the auction for THIS CAR, and the rest was just a bonus. It has cleaned up really well so far, though everything on the car had been glued together using some really nasty thread lock or CA. The servo had been silicone sealant glued down to the chassis, and that posed a bit of a problem to remove as well. Luckily, there isn't much that isn't restorable or fixable. The TRC BBS wheels with green/blue foam tires we skimmed in my truer to freshen up, and they are now like new. I even put a nice fresh coat of Paragon on them for that "old school" smell.
The car is essentially brand new, but still needs a bit more work to be perfect. The white threaded body posts long enough for a stock car will be replaced with shorter black threaded posts. The straight screws will all be replaced with the correct 4-40 black oxide steel alloy allen head screws throughout the car, and the Delta shock needs a rebuild. The front axle needs a cleanup, but aside from that, the car is perfect.
Happy day...
