Help identifying an old graphite chassis

Post by Radioflash8 »

I picked up a bundle of varuous RC10 parts, and one of them came with thia grqphite chassis. Does anyone know who made it? It only has holes for a 6-speed, so its pre-stealth

Also, just for laughs heres this abomination, a gold pan front end mounted to a Traxxas Cat (I think? Or a Nikko). Its now mounted to an RC10T that incidently arrived with the wrong front end.

The second one looks like it's the remains of a Panda-Monium! Pretty cool buggy when they're complete... somehow I dont think this one will ever achieve that status.

It was in pretty bad shape, the gesrbox was badically unusable. What makes me think that it was a Nikko/Cat is that there was another "front" end with swing arms (vs double wishbone), that looked like it had been sliced off the chassis.

Well, you know more than me. I think you're right. The rear shock towers look nearly identical to the pandamonium but the front is definitely not. The cat seems to match both.
