The Build – Part 8 The final step in the RC10 build is the body. I decided to have the body painted in Jay Halsey’s World Championship colors…but with a slight 2013 twist. Larry Genova did it up complete with the driver and gave me exactly what I was looking for…again! The car looks great …

The Build – Part 7 The wheels and tires on the RC10 Classic are excellent reproductions of the original set. These tires were molded by Proline and are a little softer than the originals. I’m happy to see that AE even included the cool plastic knock offs. Build Notes: While the screw-together wheels are good …

The Build – Part 3 The next assembly step involves attaching the rear bulkhead, shock tower and transmission to the chassis. Pretty straightforward with no surprises.

The Build – Part 2 In Part 2 of the RC10 Classic build, we jump into building an excellent rendition of the original 6-gear transmission.
