First car is the best of the two; it's a totally original assembled Losi version which has been run ALMOST none - the knobs on the tires are a bit turned over but all of the scratches on the body appear to be 'storage' scratches....

At any rate, enjoy and any suggestions would be appreciated!

I'm not sure about the Stanton Hobby Shop card - it was found inside the box with the instructions... It does appear to be about the same age as everything else.....

Stanton's closed a few years ago. It was around a pretty long time, but I guess the owner decided to retire. A few guys i know from racing worked there when touring cars were big.

Very nice cars! Unfortunately the RPS version was not very popular in Europe back in the day.

There seems to be (See last pic):
SE10 Stadand Kit
SE11 Deluxe 8) Kit (with NMB Ball Bearings)

Was the SE10 Standard Kit with bushing?

To the best of my knowledge yes; and that's the only difference.

I bought my first car (hornet) from Stanton. Unfortunately, during the touring car days, the place was pretty empty...and they didn't stay around.

The address on the card was for their old shop...they moved 2 doors down to a old gorcery store.
