This is my original RC10 with D&D Graohite chassis plate that I bought back in the day as a school kid that worked my guts off to save for this piece of history. It was so expensive for me that I decided never to use it other than to make sure it worked after building it. The car kit was bought from ABC Models in Perth Western Australia and had to be specially ordered in as no one stocked it in Perth at the time- I waited almost 3 months for it to arrive... How the Internet has since changed things (hobby store since closed down), the KO RM7 was purchased from Hong Kong on a family holiday there, the Graphite chassis plate was bought mail order together with the prepainted driver figure, and Parma gear cover with opening to adjust the diff. The Hot Shot front tires came from Perth Hobby Centre, Nylon parts were boiled in RIT clothing dye. Body was painted using duplicolor automotive spray paints of the day. This car is totally vintage including the paint and stickers. A true time warp that has been sitting in the closet waiting to pop out.
