In honor of my birthday... a little color in my life
In honor of my birthday... a little color in my life
Well it was my birthday a few days ago and since the woman said I could do anything I wanted... I opened a gold box rc10 and got to building. Well a few minutes into it I noticed that this open box that was supposedly only missing the front shocks had a really messed up chassis and some bad parts... Well I decided to use this almost mint vintage blue tub. See my post to view these strange plastic parts:

Anyways, I used .71 shocks with travel limiters on the front end and the top holes on the shock tower like Jammin Jay's Dad said to! I have to look through my parts for a new transmission case, and I could use some help if anyone has a turnbuckle like the one in the picture about 1.5 inches long or slightly longer and I can cut it, as long as it looks the same. Thanks for your help.

- I have no clue what the mark behind the battery cups is, must be a glare.

What other colors were there in the day? Is there an online guide to all the rc10 editions produced?
