Default Gold Pan RC10 - The Wallet Is Scared!

Finally talked myself into buying an RC10 just so I can do vintage without making a complete twit of myself. At present its a blank canvas as it needs an ESC and good motor but it's at least complete without any broken bits. Just a couple of screws missing.

However, I am fighting the temptation to "minterise" it, should I or should I just leave it lightly battle-scarred? I suppose it depends on whether a new old stock pan and nose piece comes up on evilbay at the same time as I've been at the whisky .

Speaking of which, where did all the spare pans go?

I may run it at Broxtowe next weekend with the trusty Tamiya motor and speedo combo (been in 5 cars so far!). If I can't be bothered to bolt it back together I'll run the Wild One instead - its not half bad with a set of modern 2.2 wheels and minipins to tame the er, tail-heavy back end. One thing is for sure - anything is better than the 'Shot, bless 'er.
