Where do you find 12th scale wheels and foams these days (for RC12)? Does anyone still make them??
Doug,

They came up in one lot from a seller over here in Aus.... mostly TRC, as can be seen. Some two-hole rears, some three-hole rears, and some pin-drive rears. I think the seller repackages single wheels and pairs that they get from used lots they buy and break up for selling.

All a bit too fiddly for me, as I don't have a 1:12 chassis at the moment! Got a few bodies, got some wheels and tyres, but no actual car.

I ran out of lower arms for my Mini Mustang project list (three builds on the go), so a good mate sent me these. They're dimensionally the same as the Mini Mustang arms, but with the extra strengthening rib in the middle. Will be fine in a Mini Mustang :)

White Replacement Arms for My RC10T !
I'm still waiting for replacement black arms so this looks a bit hacked but I got some run time in today.
This weekend I got the Avid RC10T4 Top Shaft and a V2 Slipper setup in the mail,
Put in the v2 Slipper modification and oh my my runs so smooth.

Maybe something like slightly larger tires and more offset?

Says "APEX-1" on the bonnet.
Appears to be in pristine condition so maybe it's not as vintage as its 1960's Lotus F1 shape might suggest. Straight axle in the rear (perhaps motor-on-axle like a Tamiya Hornet?) and swing arms up front and front steering.

I have not idea.

Are you gonna tell us about this mystery RC Chuck or keep us guessing? :D
