I have to admit that it has been a couple of minutes since I have purchased a gold pan online, as the prices have just gotten out of my league. If you keep an eye though, the deals still pop up every now and then. :D

Could anyone help me with the wheels? I thought they were just plastic outer covers when I bought it, but at least on the front, they are aluminum, and only use the original plastic inner. Probably a common piece, I just don't know all the aftermarket stuff that was available.

Thanks Jeff!!

The MT front shock tower would make sense, as there are CRP MT body mounts in the box also. Which makes me think that maybe this was a MT at some point in its life, and I haven't done a RC10 MT yet, so maybe this becomes the candidate.

And after further inspection the wheels are plastic. :? Something about how they reflected and the weight convinced me they were aluminum.

I never liked the CRP mounts.

I used the JG SRT conversion front and Andy's rear mounts on mine.

I like that the JG mount doubles as a front bumper.

Some cool items for a couple of future projects. When the price is right, sometimes want becomes need. :mrgreen:

Got this today... it was sitting on ebay auctions, with no interest for quite some time, and I keyed my auction at the last second, and got it right away...

A Graupner Super Speed Race Car, or Kyosho Mach Sports, with a BMW M1 bodyshell, in a very nice state. Probably from 1982, the chassis being from a bit earlier -1979 or 1980...
I buy kits to build and ru(i)n them :-)
