I'm a sucker for even the ugliest of cars. Not because I think they look good but simply because they remind me so much of what was around back in the 80's at my local track. Also all those RCCA articles had me frothing at the mouth. They used to make any car look and sound like it was the ultimate track car.

Yeah, I'm a sucker.

*spelling mistake. Mouth.

Can't argue with that!

Here are some ads and "news" that I found from vintage magazines about YZ-10 US version: Jirka

that's pretty neat to see at least what the advertised it to be. Just to clear things up, the gold (assuming associated) front shocks are something that someone swapped out instead of the purplish ones? Are the original ones hard to come by?

Yep, I think Jason is saying they were swapped out. There is a set of the originals on ebay right now, plus I think a member has some in the buy/sell/trde area for sale.

I have that US version，but from Japan，it come with the pink wheels

I guess I'll have to check on the ebay auctions for the time being, I'm a newb and don't have those privileges yet thanks for letting me know
