It is a Parma body sitting on a TRC Pro-10 chassis. It has been run and is missing a couple of shock bits but otherwise a honest old chassis. I will get better pics up when I'm feeling better.

The car next to it has more history, it is painted as a Dorsey Schroeder SCCA Raybestos Mustang and was actually driven by him for one lap around Lime Rock.

Here's a few of mine no where near as nice as most on here but I'm proud of my small collection.

That naked RC10 looks like it's never been used!!

I am still debating between painting or not my bodies on my collection. I really like the naked look, looking at the chassis, admiring the design. But in the other hand is not really finished until it is painted. If I finally decide to paint them I will definately go with the box art look, although I am not sure which way to go with the RC10CE.... Any suggestions???

PS: No one has given me yet the true release date of the Kyosho Turbo Optima Special, anyone??

Out of the box ideas for painting your bodies.
1. paint one half (right side) and not other (left side) "best" of both worlds?"

2. paint it with "semi transparent" paints (I had a can of blue "window tint" by testors) and put the decals on it. Maybe mixing clear with a dab of the color you want. May be tricky to pull off but would be really cool and unique.

Mr.Ed, what's the body on the Ultima and what wing mounts did you use?

That's a desert gator, and the wing mount is a TRF something (can't remember all those XXX#.# names)
The car is built almost entirely out of other parts.
In an earlier version I used the original body and turbo chassis with a hotshot rollcage

Seen your lovely group of vintage racers over on RC10Talk - your collection of three cars maybe quite small compared to some people on here but each one is finished off perfectly & personally I would prefer a few high quality cars rather than a whole room full of part finished projects :cool:

I like both your YZ-10 & 'Ruffy' RC10 but your Gold-Pan catalogue car is my favourite!

Quality, over quantity always rings true for me Dan, i love Robs trio.
