Another first time paint job
I just got into RC about a year ago. I bought a RC10T on e-bay (because it was cheap). I had been using some beat up old bodies and I knew that I wanted to try to do my own but I had no idea what I was doing. So....I finally just bought all the paint (cans) ...masks and started spraying. I brushed on liquid mask on the windows and I was not very happy with that as it left the outlines of the windows not as sharp and straight as I would have liked. I put all new bearings in the truck and updated the transmission to the 2.65 conversion and new stock 27 turn "Epic Pro" motor. I have enjoyed racing the old truck in the stock class and have done ok with it. I would like to find some chrome wheels to go with this body but not sure if I'll find any to fit this old truck. The back of the truck says "OLD SCHOOL ROCKS! All in all I guess it will be ok for my first time as I have never done anything like this before.
