The advantages of being a hoarder: 10L edition

Post by GoMachV »

Since I had a nice shiny chassis and strut front end from Marlo I decided to take inventory and see what I would need to finish it as a "original 10L with the dynamic strut front end before the 10LS came out" version. Surprising to me, i had everything but the spur gear (bolink is on it), front body posts (used), front brace, and a shock cap are keeping it from being an all new build. Time to cruise for the finishing pieces!

Carbon is sexy but there is something about g-10 that really just does it for me. I think it is because I can relate to owning glass cars bitd, carbon was out of my budget.

Nice! I have a nip glass chassis, t plate, front end, and left side pod plastic, TA Titanium axle, and a few more cool bits sitting waiting for a few more bits before it is ready to start. I am still lacking a few pieces for this build, like the glass front brace and I'd like to make some glass nurf wings as I don't like the carbon look on this one.

A little update to this car, I just found a very nicely painted and detailed Tide lumina body from Ron at SRP, with the concourse interior. This finishes off this build unless I can find some aluminum stock car wheels or at least some nice wheel dots

I did however just send out more aluminum 10L parts for anno, and I still have quite a few nip parts so there may be an "advantages of being a harder part duex" soon :lol:

He is trying to sell off a few cars and some dirt oval bodies, I'm waiting for an email with pics of the rest of the stuff.
