Paint's Done!

Post by FasterLouder »

After a bit of indecision and looking at god knows how many Protech bodied RC10's I arrived at this!
I'm a happy chappy. :D
I'm waiting for a decal lot I won on eBay with plenty of old school A/RC10 decals included,before I add any more,no past 1990 decals on this one.
I'm thinking of adding a thin,silver pinstripe between the white and green?

Paint looks really good, I would make a small recommendation to add some more decals as I think that would make the paint job really pop. Maybe an RC10talk.com decal on the white sidepods. :) :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Your paint job looks good. I am actually taping up a pro tech body for paint sitting here right now.

Thanks,guys! :wink:
Oh,I'll be adding more decals alright,but I don't want to put any modern decals on it.
I won these on eBay and should be more than enough...

Nice old school paint! If you squint that looks like it could be a real car. I gotta get busy and paint one but the weather changed and I have a million and one projects around the yard.

Wow,thanks man!
Can't wait 'till the NIP chrome wheels arrive...Bummer I bought a set of four rears,instead of two rears and two fronts... :oops:
Anyone got some fronts they want to sell,or trade for a pair of rears?
Gotta pick me up some fresh rubber,too.

...ain't it the truth! I too am an addict. I can't help myself. :mrgreen: :oops: :shock: :wink:

Oh, and thanks FasterLouder for the compliment on my avatar car. That paint job was done in about 2 hours total time. It really came together that time.
