Check out the scan section on this forum. The MIP instructions are present for both the SP-2 kit and the Legends also and they are slightly different. If you have the AE stealth gear box then you need the MIP Legends kit instruction the one before that used the MIP SP-1 gearbox.

There was even another version which was the really the original for the Tamiya SRB and used a speedo cable to run the front gearbox. This one can be used on a RC10 but is very rare.

One of mine with custom parts… I am working on one more. Chassis are in mint conditions so they are on the shelf for the moment. Maybe one day my son (3 year old) might want to take it for a spin in the track one day. :shock:

hi, just recently bought my first RC10 ever, a worlds car (says World's car replica 1993-1994 on the box, same thing?) Unfortunately the front end has seen some action from the previous owner. The nose piece is out of shape and the right side reinforcing rod is bent. Will I have to get new parts or can I just bend the nose piece back to shape with the help of a vice, brute force and ignorance? I am not so sure with the rod though as I don't think I will be able to get it true again. As it will be a runner I am concerned about the chassis being tweaked. All suggestions welcomed, TIA! Sorry, no pics yet, not had opportunity to take them yet.

thanks Charlie don't surf.

do all the tub models use the same nose piece or are there differences. It might help my search in ebay if I know what I am looking for. TIA
