Just stumbled across an ID for those shocks while doing some eBay searches. Think they're Hot Bodies(HPI) MAXX threaded shocks for the T-Maxx. Came in a few colors....here's purple:

The wheels look like Ultimara 1/8 wheels to me, a manufacturer of foam tires and aluminium option wheels at the 70´s. I have wheels for Associated and MRP cars and the overall look is exactly the same, just for different car. I have no clue what car could use these wheels but for sure they are very rare today. I will have a look if I can find any paperwork.

A while back I picked up a box of RC10T, Astute & Frog parts with quite few hop ups. I found this aluminiun bumper in the box but I can't seem to plave it. It's not wide enough for a clod and I can't find anything quite like it doing an image search. It's solid aluminium and has a bit of heft to it. Does anyone recognize it? Thanks in advance.

the stepside Hilux & Blazer, not the Bruiser/Mountaineer

I have a set of rears in chrome plastic that looks just like them.
Same golden chrome.
Crosspin mount.

Chance is that they are plastics.
