Nice, the black against the white tub is a nice contrast. :wink:

Dyed the wing buttons and bent up some wing wire

Just need to pick up the motor plate from powder coat and source a stealth gearbox for it

Thanks for the kind words, this a team car if you wanted to keep a look out for one to build up

So the motor plate is back from powder coating and managed to get a brand new B4 MIP layshaft so need to keep hunting for the rest of the gearbox bits

I can never get the 3 gear trans cases figured out exactly.
Is that a 6564?
It seems as the 6564 is more difficult to work with.
I think I remember GoMachV recomending the 6565.

Well Done. I hate to see a good car languishing in obscurity lol. I finished my second RC10 rebuild a few weeks ago, a CE. I rebuilt mr Edinger No-Stamp prior to that. Both are running, though I’m going to swap the 6 gear tranny for a Stealth this weekend. Good Luck

So dyed the new gearbox casing and found out that b6 slipper fits the B4 lay shaft so saved me some money!

But....the MIP slipped shaft has the spacer machined into it so it won’t work on the RC10 box so time to get it on the lathe and make it work!!

So my Dad got to work on the lathe and the lay shaft fits perfectly

More blue screws added!
