Simple Green. Thats what I use.

That pile makes me drool! Getting parts lots and imagining what you could build with it is almost more fun than complete cars...almost! :mrgreen:

By the way, I use dish soap, scotchbrite pads, some really good stuff called Oil Eater that I got at Costco, toothpicks, toothbrushes, Q-tips and Super Clean to get my parts clean. It depends on the part, what's stuck on it or imbedded in it. More often than not it takes multiple sessions to get parts to their best appearance.

Or could they be RPM Worlds arms? I see 2 mounting points.

if it was worlds arms, the castor block would be set back in relation to the bulkhead. losi's are more inline.

I've had another look, the two of the bulkhead bits have like cross hatch reinforcing inside the box part where as usual RC10 bits just have the box with two little lumps inside. Those arms have Andy's on them and also there's two bumpers with Andy's on.

the weird black and silver body would be an edm (pic for reference). :wink:

that gold tub is definately an edinger. i would tear it down, clean it up the best you can, and put it back together. only replace what needs to be replaced. i like to see cars, especially ones that are so complete and correct, kept with the parts it was originally built with. but that's just me. :wink:

maybe try to find a set of jelly bean wheels in the same condition as the rest of the car.

That was the plan, just a simple shelf queen. Got enough parts to make a few runners, maybe make a team shelfer too. I've never seen those weird cars before but I am UK based. :)
