Awesome!
Is that length 46mm end to end or Pin to Pin?

46mm is length from end to end

10mm is width from pin to pin

RC10DS dog bone length is:

46mm or 1 and 13/16 inches

The width of the dog bone from pin to pin is:

10mm or 3/8 inch

(I don't believe I'm going to say this ) The size of the BALLS are :

6mm or 2/8 inch

Great restore job.

That GT is now a happy truck

I'm also happy you kept it nitro rather than convert to electric

It would be awesome to have a CZ engine sticker on it.

I was looking through my stuff for black associated race car lines decal or the RC10DS logo decal.... I'll look to see if i have cz decal to see what that looks like. I know for sure I have the os engine logo decals
