A white and black transition CE! As Associated ran out of original white parts, they would switch with the new updated black parts as they came in!

All the CE's had a wiper type speed control.

I would like some full pictures of your black and white CE. I would like to see the bulkhead ears as well as the turnbuckles and shocks!

Thanks
Rod

My CE only had black arms, rear hub and rear bulkhead
the rest was white

Was this built from a kit, as this is the first of this I have heard-

I rebuild it with white parts from my Team Car

No old pictures of the original car with the body off?

You dyed the white parts orange or is the picture just bad?

Not the first time I have heard of it but I have never seen one to prove it!

I've got a quick question regarding the bodyshells that came with each car... I see that SnoopMaxx's CE has the Viper shell.... but the box shows the ProtechII.... I thought that it was only the Team Cars that came with the Viper, but then the box for the Team Graphite car shows the ProtechII also?

Did the Viper shell basically take over from the 2nd Gen Protech for all models apart from the Worlds?

I was a little disappointed when I first bought my CE
"wrong" body and black Bulkhead + a-arms :lol:

That viper body allowed a lot of dirt to enter the tub :x
So I used the Pro-Line body in stead

Great information SnoopMaxx! I updated the late CE info based on this! I would love better pictures of this version, not that it would not be hard to make one, but I would like pictures of a NEW built from box!

I noticed it has black shock towers. Were they the Worlds towers and if so are they what came in the box?

The tower's were blacked out with an ink marker :cry:
They were identical to all the previous towers

I still owe you a better photo of the black rear bulkhead
And that's a Fibre-Lite tower on the right

I updated the Graphite RC10 with some nice chassis pictures showing the different weave patterns and AE logo. Pictures courtesy of scr8p and comment from Ruffy. I hope Ruffy will not mind as I did not ask? :oops: :mrgreen:

Why is "scr8p" not red on my spell check? Why is he special?
