well today i thought it would be nice to tear apart the RC10 and clean everything and even try to whiten it up. I took a bowl of hot water and mixed in a few scoops of oxy clean. wow did that work awesome! all the dirt and grime literally just fell off. and with a little scrubbing it seemed to get some white back. i also thoroughly cleaned the tub and nose and she came out beautiful. since i dont have a full set of original tires i used the bolink foams that i had sitting around. those too cleaned up great with the oxy clean. so below are some pics of the car in a dismantled state and completely finished. i was messing with my camera (nikon D40X) and the pics turned out a little over exposed, just makes it look nicer i guess I also have a picture of my newly aquired RC10T. it has RPM arms, some sort of aftermarket tie rods all the way around, high speed servo, 3/16th" CVD, and a few other mods. i threw in a novak reactor ESC with a speed gems 17T single that i had sitting around. seems to work pretty nice. It will be a good runner. right now its has proline speed paws (i think thats the tire) but i have the original wheels and tires as well as a set of foams.

damn man that turned out sweet,Im doing a resto project myself...tomorrow I plan on whitening all the parts and repainting my scratched up black tub....all I need is the original white front arms...I have a pair of black ones...RPM I think...

Thanks for the compliment! I have two sets of spare 10T arms but I bet you are talking about a buggy. If not let me know. I have the original 10t black set and I know I have white rears as well.

I see you are talking about a 10T (sig) snap a pic of the fronts. They may be factory. I got the original manual with my truck and it came with "rpm" looking arms up front and the classic white arms in the rear.

The Ones I have are Associated RC10 GT Front A-Arms,I want the white rc10t originals...
