I have had Corally motors with endbell like this so it´s maybe straight from Yokomo.

I think this motor is older than the Yokomo or Corally motor with aluminium endbell. But again a Sagami based can like those.

Can anyone please help id the following wheels as I'm cleaning a LOT of my junk (been doing so for the past 3wks now :? )

these were found on a TRX1 with front RC10 suspension. The rears seem to fit a 1/4 rc10 axle fine...

Image


These were on an optima. Tires are obviously Tamiya ovalblocks ripoffs

Image


These rears were on an rc10T, and obviously the rear offset is completely wrong and pushes track way too far:

Image

Last set - was on an rpm decked-out jrxt (which will go to the restore process soon if I can ever find a chassis in ok condition - hint hint :mrgreen: )
Image
(rustler, maybe?)


Thanks,
Paul

Holy Cow Reggie, you're freakin' amazin' :shock:

For the last set (current rpm rims) I can't seem to find a reference to them on Tower at least - but they're usually pretty good for rpm stuff... can you be more explicit maybe?

Thanks for the info :)

All right thank you all

that's three projects here coming from 3 different people, from three different countries (in at least 2 continents), and three different times (talk many years apart)... all sharing proline rims. That's weird :)

Thanks all

That's a great chassis kit there. Aaron is correct. I'd love to find one of those one day.
Ask Bob Stormer.

Found this in one of his adds from 2000/2001 time line.

TRC pro12, Delta rear rims. Upper pod plate cut and modified. Shock is original to the car, rear body posts are old Parma, fronts Associated. TRC front rims. Missing the antenna mount (goes where the white nut is on the front of the T-bar) and the little plates that connect the two posts. Also missing the battery straps.

The golden shock is an upgraded version from Delta. Right from kit there was the same silver coloured smaller shock from Delta as used by the Delta Spyder and all other Delta 1/12th cars. I have a NIB TRC Pro12 and it´s easy to see there.
