There was another post on restoring the magnesium and aluminum parts by bead blasting them, which is the way I would go. Maybe chemical strip first and finish with the bead blasting to restore the satin/cast finish. I've done this with cast aluminum car parts.

that means i still have to find a place that will do bead blasting... oh well, i guess that's just part of playing with old toys.

Hi all, I've been reading this forum for 6 months and been a signed member for about 3 months but this is my first post. A long time Tamiya fun (and a TC member) I've recently been bit by the RC10 bug and now drive one in the local vintage meetings....

nice to see you here as well, Steve. I suspected you might be a member here after seeing your RC10-Scorcher hybrid on TC :wink:

The forum's pic uploader works pretty good for displaying, as long as your file size isn't too big. I think 250K is the max?

Hi all and thanks for the add

Got a call from a friend who purchased a Tamiya so I decided to dust off my old RC10 thats been sitting in a box for almost 30years. Still looked pretty clean as it really was never used much. Anyway, I lightly oiled...

Well I've been a member here since 12/08, and until now I haven't yet posted pics of my main project, which I call the Ballertruck - my runner that should be a shelfer!

Some parts used for the build:

Worlds Chassis - found it at a garage sale...

Just found this thread searching for 10t info. This is a cool build. Wonder what happened with it?

hi guys/gals i am very concerned here. i have a bunch of rc10t2 that i want to run as racers in the future (maybe 5-7+ years from now). the parts are the rear bulkhead, rear tower, a-arms, whether they be carbon composite, fiberglass or woven...

Last post

The materials associated used on thier cars is very good. you rarely see a broken part. now if you were talking about a vintage Tamiya, I would say skip running it.
