The one with the Custom Works sticker is from Custom Works. :wink:

If the other one isn't made by BP Chassis (website or FB) it might be from Klien.

Thanks I’ll check into the Klein chassis that’s the one I no the least about. The custom works chassis looks to utilize losi parts I think

From what I can see in the pic it looks like standard CW parts plus Associated shocks.

That looks like a Junior 2/T chassis with the sides cut down to look like a SE/LXT. I would say it started off as either a JRX-Pro or a Junior. Also has RPM wide JRXT arms,

Taking another shot and asking if anyone can ID these diff parts.

Image

They're hex drives, and will fit Fox/Blackfoot bones, but the diff is 8mm (maybe 5/16") behind the drive cups, while the Fox and Blackfoot use 5mm ID bearings. The diff also works with RC500 drive shafts so I'm wondering if maybe the diff is for an 8th scale car :?:

Any idea what this is? It sold for huge $$$. To me, it looks like a Tamiya buggy with a Hot Trick chassis.

Looking at the parts, I'd say Hot Trick Hotshot kit.
