Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Thanks JKRacing , found some info under Race prep conversion for AYK. Quoted from TamClub.
"Quite a rare mod kit from Race Prep for the early 2WD AYK buggies "
Only found rear conversion so far, but Im sure the front is the same. as parts are same colour etc.
Now which way to restore this?? I do have parts to make original. Not much info out there on this one, so far.
I think this one is gonna clean up really nice. Lots of dirt, grime. hardly any damage.

What's the width on those wheels...and are the top pair using bearings/bushings? If so are they metric?
They definitely look T&A wheels but I don't recall ever seeing a pair of wide fronts from T&A that used bearings. They almost look like wheels for a 2wd touring car.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Maybe they're not made by T&A.
All four of ireg's wheels are the same width and if those Kyosho tires are for a touring car I'd expect them to be 26mm wide...narrower than the T&A RC10 rears I have which are 31mm.
Measurements of the wheels would help...outside diameter, width, and size of whatever that black thing is in the center of the top right wheel.

Re: The Official "What is it?" Thread
Mystery solved.
It's RC10 wheels alright. even the front flange bearing of RC10 fit to the front wheels.
First I tried it to RC10 and it cant fit. Today I tried it again to the different car (rc10) and its ok. Now wondering what type of uni is in my rc10 (the first car)
