RC10Talk - The Net's Largest Vintage R/C Community

Just got this in the mail yesterday from a guy on RCtech. I paid $100 + $15 shipping. I think I got a good deal.... Right?

I already have a much nicer 870c and new YZ10, that I will make into queens one day , but I always want to have a runner of each car and a queen! I ran a stock 870c back in the day and have very fond memories I want to re-live!

Hmmmm! I thought I uploaded the 2 pictures, but for some reason they didn't take!

So here are the original pictures the seller sent me!

That looks like a screamin' deal. Lots of good parts there to keep a runner going.

Nice score! I'd have paid more for that pile of goodies!

O.k... I'm not very in touch with what all I have (not very Yokomo savvy)!

Whats the top deck on the built up car?

Whats the aluminium arms and the c hubs with bearings?

Brands, that is?

Aluminum hubs, likely Delta products. Top deck looks like a Jammin piece.

Nice score!

Wish i could help. My one brush with getting a Yok turned into a fiasco (guy never shipped it) - see my avatar.

Nice score Rod ! LMK what parts you might need . I too just jumped on the yoke bandwagon . Very cool car indeed !

More than likely they are Dialed Racing parts. They had all sorts of aftermarket aluminum parts for that series of cars- imported from Japan. -Jeff

Thanks for the help, info and offers guys! I look forward to building this one. I will even try to build 2 will all the extra parts, as I do have another partial one in the garage. I'm sure I can build two nice ones with these plus the one in the garage!

The only problem is time! And other projects that I desperately need to finish! Both my RC10T's, RC4WD Defender/Galande and much much more! Winter is coming and my sons MX season is also coming to an end! I know this sounds strange but, I'm looking forward to a long cold winter just to get some of these projects done!

One question. Is there any way to build the stock Yokomo shocks so they work well? Or just forget them and put AE team shocks on?

O.k. that's 2 questions!

1) no
2) correct

Vintage AE just picked up these yesterday from my house and will be building 2, or I hope 3 runners with all the parts.

For his time and effort, he gets to keep the second best one!

100 bucks thats sweet. love when someone has the balls to say what they payed. like it's all a big secret or something
