So the I am lucky enough to have 2 original gold pan's, 1 is 90% done being restored to factory specs, and the one in pieces I have plans for muahahahah!! :jumpy: I plan to strip the anodized gold and go with an anodized blue on all the gold pieces and dye all the discolored plastic to black. I havent decided on the blue or maybe a little more out there color like neon green, but im leaning towards blue. Go wider on the front a-arms, rebuilding the shocks and going with stiffer springs, possibly converting the wheels to updated specs 2.2 i think it is. Motor and electrics im not sure yet so that can wait till the build is complete. Im shooting for the spring to be done, but within a weeks time i will have the gold stripped and painted and hopefully everything I ordered will be here.

I've always loved the RC10 - I believe it has an interesting history which is partially discussed in this wikipedia section:
