Can anyone name this chassis, arms and body?

Another one for the collection, obviously ex-racer based on the modifications. I'm presuming it started life as an original short arm car as it's still got the front anti roll bar on the chassis. Six gear, alloy shock mounts, later shocks. I'm not sure on the suspension arms there's no marking left on them, and the chassis. Don't know what the body is either, apart from it looks too short to be made for the RC10. Choice of tyres is a bit out there, but somewhere I do have the original jelly beans fitted with decent condition Proline Wafflles.

Andy's arms and body, chassis could be composite craft, parma, trinity.......

Who made those battery cups with built in straps?

That motor plate was made by a local racer to me back in the day. Sold them at the lhs.

I had one, they were nice! I think the motor plate itself was sold with a 10t of mine wayyy back. But I still have the heatsink portion

Wow, thanks scr8p.

Thought the arms would be Andys, but these are pretty battered with no name left on them and they look quite a bit different to the Andys arms on my runner RC10. I wasn't expecting the body to be for the RC10, it just looked way too big on this chassis. I would have never put that heatsink motor mount as an actual product though, while the heatsink is a very nice piece of work I would have thought they would have made the plate big enough to still seal with the gear cover. Looks like I'm keeping that on the car then.

this was dirt oval country back then. no one used gear covers..... they weren't needed.

if i remember right, the heat sink itself was an mcs piece. he drilled and tapped a 4-40 hole into it, then added the slotted tab to the motor plate so you could attach and adjust it.

and the body was designed to fit the shape of the andy's molded and pro graphite chassis.

Yeah that looks just like my motor mount, including the movable heatsink. Don't know anything about the history of this RC10, but with the motor mount and tyres I guess it started life a lot nearer you than me.

that car is very similar to one i picked up about an hour or so south of me quite a few years back.....

wow, same chassis, motor mount, body. That is a hell of a coincidence.

[scr8p]
