RC10T cleanup and repair

[Jimbo302]

I've got no information on this RC. I was hoping the experts on here could fill in the gaps.

7001, the first version of the 10T. If you were the winner, looks like a good solid truck for what you paid

[SiRacer420]

I was watching that one too. Good deal.

[Jimbo302]

I thought so too, it ended up being $107 shipped.

I always wanted a RC10t, just don't know much about them.

[Jimbo302]

The white plastic made me think it was an early model. Did these come with the 6gear transmission?

[GoMachV]

no, still a stealth. It lacked universals and a graphite trans brace as well as a few other little things vs a later 7035 truck. It would have come with both narrow and skinny fronts, three piece wheels, steel front axles, a B stamp chassis (offset battery on very early trucks, centered on later) and thinner towers.

Nice, thanks.

Is it something I should try to preserve? I had planned to run it.

I'd run it. It's in that gray area where it could go either way.......but if it was me, have some fun with it, and when you're done someday, then clean it up and set it on a shelf.

Sounds like a Hollywood 10T.....



As you were.....

Nice score I saw that one on ebay also.

Given that it is an early RC10T kit I would personally suggest preserving it. Get yourself a cheap RC10T3 to play with.

[Jimbo302]

So this one has the later, larger wheels?

[Jimbo302]

That's actually what I was looking for. I got this one because it came in under my $100 budget.

I took your advice and found a T4 roller. I doubt I can keep from taking this one out, but at least it might keep it from getting torn up.

I've been reading the history thread. I'm unclear on the difference between webbed arms and the early stealth brace.
