Looked liked it was going to rain this morning and almost decided not to go to the flea market . Its been a long time since I found anything decent there but came across this box mixed together with several Tyco cars for $20 . Looks like a good mix of cars and parts ,of course I will have to clean of all the dirt before it can be brought inside the house

. Not to familiar with on-road , can anyone identify the two cars , thanks in advance .

taking them out of the box would help.................
the one i think is a bolink invader, and the other a 10l.

Oops , sorry scr8p , better pictures would help identify the cars . Here pictures of the two on-road cars and the rc10t . Looks like they have been sitting in the garage or outdoors for awhile , most of the screws on the underside are completely rusted . The 10t does have Rpm rod ends , transmission and I believe Tecnacraft turnbuckles .

Thanks for the information xanadu , these were all the parts left in the box after cleaning out the parts tree , toothbrushes and paper clips . I also had a chance to rebuild the Rc10l over the weekend . Started by stripping of all the green paint on the car , that then left some previously dyed dark brown parts . After a run to the store for Rit Dye , I dyed everything black and polished all the metal piece's . Besides the wheels the only things that I replaced were the tie rods , spring and spur , the old one was way to large . Took apart the anodized orange motor and cleaned the bearings , brushes and added some comm drops . Does anyone know what motor that is , the label is missing but it does seem well built . Charged up the battery and did a couple laps around the driveway

. I need some recommendations on a body and bumper that is still available , will the Protoform Lmp work , should I look for a 200mm or 235mm body ? Thanks

Or a Trinity Sprint wind. They both used Kyosho cans/endbells, but the Trinitys were hand-wound here in the U.S. and were the hot ticket in 1987.
