Chromies RC10 T Resto. (Updated Pics)

[Chrominator]

Well I guess I'm now an official vintage RC10 collector.

I've been showing off my newly restored RC10 CE at the track that I race at , and I've been getting a lot of guys talking about there memories of the old RC10 Tubs , and one them said hey I've got an old original RC10T, and I said do you want to sell it ? and he said, Sure give me $35. and it's all yours.

It came with a Futaba Magnum AM sport radio and Rx. (2)Futaba FP-S14B servos, (2) Ass. stock motors , Duratrax ESC, (2) wiper style SC. and a totally custom painted body, LOL. also some extra new and used white parts and the original box.

So here it is my latest RC10 T restoration.

Hey Bill , how's it going . How's your gold tub looking ?

Looks like on-road at SRS is officially dead.

It looks like ON-Road is dead AT SRS! But it really has been dying since the new owners took over. You would think with one of them the president of ROAR they could figure out how to build or keep a racing program alive. SRS is for off raod at least untill they kill it off too!

My Gold tub is still sitting un touched I keep buying more crapy used chassis in search of cheap parts but I have not found any thing but junk.

The car arrived. I just looked it over and it is bent like a banna the body is very poor and looks good from far away but the seller noted that in his auction. overall I am happy and have parts to build on.

Is it really bent bad? It doesn't look bad in the Pictures.

[Chrominator]

Gamma thanks.

Well since I'm out of work and have no money to buy the parts I need to fix up my latest RC10T restoration, I thought I would try to fix some of the parts that needed fixing .

The first major part that needed to be replace or fix is the rear bulk head.

You can see what it look like before I fix it in the first two pictures, the last three pictures are after I fix it .

The bottom three pictures came out real yellow , because I could not use my flash on micro.

What do you guys think , is it presentable for a self queen restoration ?

[Chrominator]

I made some procress on my T Resto. what do you think ?

[JUSS10]

his fronts are blue. you can buy them like that. the different colors designate the rate of that spring.
