It's going to look great in black
and I feel more period correct, if you were building a custom RC10 back in the 80's you were dying your parts.
Build it you'll like it

Thanks Doug, it'll be a fun build. When completed, it'll be a replica of Sammy Swindells 1n Nance car he wheeled in the late 70's early 80's.

I'll follow this with interest, and hope it provides some inspiration/idea's when I start the resto on my sprint car!

Nossir, this was part of the free stuff I acquired not long ago.
As for the caster blocks, I was just going by the instruction sheet that came with it.
Unless I did it wrong.

Yes please David! I have a couple of sprints needing restoration. It would really make things nice to see what was intended.
