My "Precious" controlled RC10GX with Italian Mecha sponsorship. Just a few hardware details to enhance the colors of a classic.
Upgraded bolts and screws, springs, graphite brace, and a white paint scheme that flowing to the font bumper.
Yokomo engraved black dish plates from Pargu, and 90s aqua blue KO ESC. Special effects magic (paper cup) to lift the front end for a static action shot :)

My 1986 Kyosho Rocky.

Totally torn down and cleaned/restored.
New body, paint and decals.

Everything on the car is original other than the motor, speed control resistors and the new body.

I like that grave digger body on Brayduns gt. I had that body in the 90's on an MT converted rc10 with lunchbox wheel/tires/adapters that got served some major thrashing bitd. Otherwise for me it had to be jcwrks' rc10. That car has pretty much every part I remember drooling over as a teen when I use to read and see ads for in the rc car action magazines until the b2 came out. :mrgreen:
Old school racing all the way!

It is a Battle of the Titans with the RC10s this month. :D It's so close it came down to the front tires for me. :lol:

FYI- I can't see the pics for Braydun's. It is probably my crappy work laptop causing the issue, but I mention it just in case...
