Fortunately my wallet is safe from this purchase. I am sure we will see them on ebay soon.

Since nobody mentioned a date, these are in a Trinity 1992 catalog. I'd need to dig more to see if they came out earlier. I do know that Trinity had blue ano Clod shocks back in 1990, but they have a different design.

Mike, that B2/B3 moo body looks fabulous. I still remember when you asked Andy "OG" to paint a nearly identical scheme for you several years ago. He hit you with his random excuse of the week for a long time, you finally told him to forget it, then he listed it on eBay a few days later. :r...

Dats a whole lota rare nip parts your working with, this things gunna be pretty sweet 8) Those Trinity shocks are neeeew !

I'm sure the driver had a lot to do with it.

I figured this thread deserved a 15 year bump.

No, but you can fit a MIP SP-1 with GD-100 gear diff on the chassis.

I have an all black C stamped 7011 with T2 parts, so it would be safe to date it 1995.

No, but there was a running change from the early 4 hole to the more common 6 hole.

Sassy Chassis ad's were plentiful in RCCA starting in 1990. I figured that I would try to source a standard RC10 chassis as the base for an all new hopped up build. There are only a couple of AE factory pieces such as the tranny brace, ball cups, shock bushings, and assorted hardware. I am not going...

Interesting how a small scale individual can release affordable injected molded parts, but both AE and RPM claim that it's way to expensive. What gives?

Nib 7011 kit, sealed parts bag, with white plastics and black aluminum shock caps. It has a Reedy Outlaw stock motor as well.
