RC10GT Team Truck #7075 Resto

Post by RC10resto »

As some of you know I am not a big truck guy but after seeing some nice examples on this board I had to participate. Found a barely used but damaged core to clean up. Still needs a few tweeks but felt like taking some pics.

Very nice! If your getting parts from Marlo you know the build is better than new!

Just out of the brake fluid bath. Some chemical got on it at some point, I will see if it will polish out.

Very nice Brian! I have one that I need to finish as well. Got some goodies from Reg to do it all, including a body. I cant wait to do it as VAE is painting the body in the next month or so. Thank God it survived the fire. VAE is doing box art for me! The GT I'm restoring has a unused but painted green body, so I'm hoping it will strip for me! We will see in the future. I always had a soft spot for the GT, I raced them for quite a few years, and with a good O.S. or Nova Rossi they are fun with little problems!
