Picked up my IOM 2SS/RS today!!!
 

OK! Got your attention? :wave:

Earlier this year I picked up one of those HUGE Camaro Concept 1/10 scale RC cars...they are 21" long by the way, and we clocked it up to 22mph, which is pretty cool for an RC car...anyway, the only choices I had were silver and red at Walmart...I bought the silver...here is what it looked like before:

And so, I got to thinking...how awesome would it be to have it sanded down, taken apart, and have it painted/striped the way I ordered mine....so, I took it to my body guy, and let him have at it...

The color is the GM IOM, we looked thru the books, and it's the only IOM, and looks AMAZING. It does look red in no direct light...but in the light this color is absolutely amazing and is ORANGE....the white strips are Olympic white w/ a tad of pearl...

I put some Z2 on this car as soon as I got it home, and man, I can NOT take my eyes off of it.

Brian had a cool idea, and took the pics downstairs for me...next to our checkered border, and they turned out oh so HOT!

Enjoy and post up any thoughts :thumbup: I am having the license plate engraved and made later this week :w00t:

So, check out the pics:

:chevy:

HOOORAH for IOM!

Very nice 350! And thanks for the post title. I nearly broke my damn finger trying to click the mouse!

That was mean. It is pretty, though. :coolpics:

Ban

:iono:


Just kidding.

I inserted the images for you. :thumbsup:

At the very least a severe beating. :paddle:

:sm0:

:sm0:

SORRY!! I figured you all would FREAK! But you have to admit...it's smokn' hot!!!

It's wayyyyyyy past my bed time....the turkey is being cooked, and my Ambien is kicking in....I had to be sure these pics were posted though...enjoy :thumbup:

:help:

:laughabove:

You are awesome! Thanks for posting these

That looks amazing! I've narrowed my choices to either IOM or ABM, I like both colors alot.

Consider it an early Thanksgiving appetizer :D

IOM looks VERY amazing in the sun, and isn't credited well in most pics....my camera is a Canon PowerShot S2 btw.

I am very happy I chose the IOM, no regrets, now that I have seen it on 'the' car :laugh:

This is a bad little RC though, the lights are on when you drive it, and the signals automatically come on when turning....and the rear lights work as well!
No engine sounds or anything though...

If you want to see your car before you get it, lol This is a way to do it!

I just can't keep my eyes off it :wub:

THANKS A LOT FOR THAT! I seen them on here, and was like HOW did that happen???

That made my night :w00t: Now, I have got to take my eyes off this gorgeous piece of plastic and get to bed!!! Lots of cookn' to do tomorrow :popcorn:

Most of these pics actually look like IOM....when you see it in person.

Excellent post!!!

I wonder if i could find the cyber gray paint??? I would do the same thing.
Nice work!

Are you in advertising? You got the exacy reponse you were looking for from what looks like everyone. I freaked and thought I got to get to this thread and find out how this happen 'cause i want to do it too.

Great Job and the plastic and the pictures. Hats off to you.
