I don't know much about it either, but it doesn't look like it needs much to be finished. Build it, then if your still unsure, sell it afterwards.

I have a works 91 project,
http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=1127, I don't know a great deal about Yokomos but there are a few guys on here with plenty of knowledge. All I can tell you is I had to do a lot of searching to get the bits I needed, they are not as available as RC10 stuff but that surely makes it a worth while project and probably quite valuable when finished.

I hear you on that. I have about 5 projects that are all at various stages of incompletion. I need to learn to only work on 1 thing at a time, then I could finish something and post pics of it!

completed cars are over-rated. they have more character sittin' in pieces.

i believe they are the first yz10 produced. even tho you have alot of projects i would keep onto it if i were you.
i dont know much about them, but it looks like all you need an upper brace and a belt tensioner.
