Box Art Paint Archive / Ad Paint Archive

Post by Wyattriot77 »

Hello Everyone,

I did try to use the search, but cannot for the life of me, find the darn thread containing pictures of the original rc10 box art car in its current state(missing the wing) Im thinking of doing a perfict paint/detail job for my mint built rc10. I have a body that is close, but not close enough for me. Does anyone have any pictures of the actual elec's used in the car, and how they looked?

Also, what does everyone think about making a permanent thread of just pictures of old ad cars for paint reference?? I know I would find it useful, maybe some would agree.

If anyone has a link to those pictures, could you please post them for me.
Thanks!!!

I know this is an old thread, but thanks mikedealer for posting the info. These pics are fantastic. Now are there any pics of the wing? I am doing a box art car and I know the sides of the wing are painted to match but what about the top? Is it just orange or did it have the blue and raspberry colours, and what decal/s if any are on the wing? Any info on this would be great.

I even have the Tamiya driver to put in it!
