Well i got this RC10 off ebay a couple weeks ago, It looks like a worlds car (Chassis), I'm hoping the car is in good shape, The pictures are kinda blurry, Can anyone tell if this looks like a true worlds car and if any parts are not original to the car?

Worlds car, the rear rims and tires ( look to be 2.2) are not oe. Everything else is

Thanks, As soon as it arrives ill give it a once over to see what i need for it, I'm hoping not much lol

unless it's a new chassis or nose I should have whatever you need for that model

William that is a pretty nice looking car. Looks to be in decent shape.

I need to get mine finished up, just not into it right now.

Thanks Jake, Im hoping its in pretty good shape, Im still not sure what im going to do with it lol, But whats new

Well the worlds car has arrived, Its in better shape then i thought. I have new front and rear arms for it, I guess ill replace the wheels/tires and the rear shock tower.

Did the worlds car come with brass bushings in the bellcrank?

Has anybody had any success sanding out light scratches and having a worlds chassis re anodized?

looks great! Lucky!!!

looks nice and original. you need to flip the front shock spring collars.

lol, yeah i seen that, you find some funny stuff from cars off ebay lol

yes, they had a bushinged bellcrank.

the only thing i'd do to that car would be tear it down, clean it up, and put it back together. replacing old parts only if it's absolutely necessary. find some nice used period electronics, paint up a body and call it done.

but that's just me......
